Healthcare Assistant

An exciting opportunity has arisen at our site within the Northampton General Hospital for a Clinical Assistant to join the team.

Roles at this site are highly sought after so prompt applications are advised as we will close the advert once sufficient applications are received.

Our Clinical Assistants provide a pivotal role in supporting our Radiographers. Working directly with patients in the clinical environment, this is an excellent opportunity for individuals with an interest in healthcare. Role responsibilities include:

• Assisting in patient preparation
• Chaperoning
• Cannulation
• Positioning of MRI patients on the scanner and MRI coil changes
• Clinical stock management
• Clinical audits
• Processing of patients via our E-Systems
• Admin cover where necessary

To be successful in this role you must be able to demonstrate good communication, IT and administration skills, alongside a compassionate and enthusiastic demeanour.

A flexible, organised and enthusiastic attitude is essential. Experience in the healthcare industry is preferred but not necessary as full training will be provided. Competency in IV cannulation would however be advantageous.

Please note that this role requires the successful post holder to work a variety of four 10 hour day shifts Monday-Sunday.

Please note that we will be interviewing throughout the duration of this advert. Therefore if you are interested in this role an early application is advised as we may close the advert prior to the advertised date.

Leaders, managers, and supervisors have a particular responsibility to be role models in terms of how they demonstrate these values themselves and how they engage their teams to work in this way.
