Band 6 Specialist Renal Dietitian - Birmingham, United Kingdom - University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust
Description
Job summary
We are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Dietitian who will work as part of a team with four other Specialist Renal Dietitians at Heartlands, Good Hope and Solihull Hospitals as part of University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. The Renal Dietetic Team is part of a large, friendly dietetic department which provides a great support network.
This post will offer the opportunity to develop key knowledge and skills in Renal Dietetics through the delivery of specialist dietetic care to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the acute and community setting. This includes the provision of nutrition support and therapeutic dietary advice in acute kidney injury (AKI), pre dialysis, haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and conservative management. This role provides a great challenge as our patients have complex needs with renal failure often occurring alongside other clinical conditions including gastroenterology, oncology, diabetes and weight management.
We are proud of the collaborative working relationships we have developed with the wider renal MDT and you will have the opportunity to work closely with and be supported by our medical, nursing and therapy colleagues in order to deliver high quality patient care.
At University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust we embrace digital working with the use of electronic patient records. This enables us to work more efficiently, improves security and enables effective data analysis.
Main duties of the job
Experience in renal dietetics is desirable, however not essential as training and support will be provided. Experience in a variety of clinical areas such as gastroenterology, oncology, diabetes and weight management is essential in order to be able to support our patients with multiple comorbidities as well as their CKD.
We are looking for a Dietitian with excellent communication skills and a commitment to team working as you will be required to attend regular MDT meetings where you will discuss patient care including the management of CKD mineral bone disease.
Post registration experience in an acute NHS hospital setting is required alongside the ability to work flexibly with effective time management and organisational skills as you will be working in a fast paced and busy environment.
An integral part of this post will involve participation in student training and the supervision of Band 5 Dietitians. The role will provide the opportunity to lead on audits and quality improvement projects to improve patient care as well as learning and development opportunities to help advance your management and leadership skills.
If you would like to discuss this post please do not hesitate to contact Lauren Dight, Renal Dietetic Team Leader or Sarah Thatapudi, Therapy Lead on Tel:
