Job overview

Would you like to work in a small, friendly and collaborative Neurophysiology team alongside a Consultant Neurophysiologist and experienced specialist physiologists? We are looking for experienced Clinical Physiologists to join our staff bank team to provide flexible specialist cover and support the delivery of our Neurophysiology services.

This role offers the opportunity to work across a wide range of specialist investigations while maintaining flexibility through bank working. Appointment will be at Band 6 or Band 7 depending on experience, qualifications and scope of practice.

Main duties of the job

In this role you will play a key part in delivering a comprehensive Neurophysiology service, undertaking a range of routine and advanced investigations including EEG, nerve conduction studies and routine Evoked Potentials.

You will have the opportunity to contribute to our physiologist-led Nerve Conduction Study clinics, assessing patients with suspected carpal tunnel syndrome and ulnar neuropathy, and for Band 7 practitioners, peripheral neuropathies including lower limb studies. Alongside NCS, you will undertake routine, sleep-deprived and Melatonin-induced sleep EEGs within the department and across Trust wards, including ICU and other inpatient areas as required.

You will also participate in our Evoked Potential clinics, performing Visual, Auditory and Somatosensory Evoked Potentials, with Band 7 practitioners contributing to more specialist investigations where appropriate.

The successful candidate will assess and manage patients independently, adapting investigations to meet individual patient needs while maintaining the highest standards of care and professional practice. Band 7 applicants will additionally be expected to contribute to service development, clinical governance, audit activities, training and the support of junior and apprentice physiologists.

Within the team, you will work closely with our dedicated administrative and booking coordinators and help support the ongoing development of our Neurophysiology service.
