Part time work will be considered.

Whittington Health is an innovative organisation which delivers seamless high quality health care for patients at the Whittington hospital and in the community boroughs of Haringey and Islington.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone.

Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff.

We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief.

The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences.

We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.

Please see attached job description for full details:

You will have an opportunity to be involved in clinical rotations (nail surgery/Biomechanics/ulcer clinics) as well as a preceptorship programme for your development in this role.

You will be working at sites based in Islington but may be asked to work across in Haringey based on service needs.

Your clinical caseloads will include new patient assessments, diabetic foot reviews, conservative podiatry care for both high and low risk patients and domiciliary visits for housebound patients.
