Oncology Dietitian - Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom - Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust
Description
Job overview
We are looking for a positive and enthusiastic nurse with a strong work ethic and a solid clinical background in either surgery or cancer care to join our well-established team of Breast Cancer Clinical Nurse Specialists at Band 6 level. This is a development role where you will be supported by expert clinicians and specialists to enhance your skills and knowledge in managing patients with breast cancers, eventually progressing to Band 7 level when the requisite competencies have been achieved.
This post will focus primarily on the surgical aspect of the breast cancer pathway.
The Breast CNS team at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust is a forward-thinking, patient-focused team providing a high standard of care for patients diagnosed with breast cancer, embracing change to improve patient experience.
The CNS Team are an integral part of the Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) and work closely with medical/surgical colleagues, diagnostic services, inpatient and outpatient teams to provide a holistic and patient-centred service. The CNS team have strong links with Kent Oncology Centre to ensure a streamlined pathway of care for patients.
The CNS Team also includes a Cancer Support Worker who provides a valuable contribution to the patient pathway.
Main duties of the job
The role will include learning how to practice at an advanced level to provide in-depth knowledge on the care pathway and complex needs of patients diagnosed with breast cancer and learning how to take the lead on the day-to-day running of the service.
You will work clinically with the Band 7 CNS Team, learning to support patients and carers from the time of referral to provide specialist nursing advice and practical and psychosocial support including Holistic Assessments and Personalised Care Plans.
The post will involve cross-site working and a degree of flexibility to meet the needs of the service. We currently operate a Monday to Friday service and are happy to consider a flexible working pattern providing the needs of the service are met.
Working for our organisation

The Trust's core catchment areas are Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells and their surrounding boroughs. We work from two main clinical sites: Maidstone Hospital and Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury. Tunbridge Wells Hospital opened in 2011 and provides single rooms with en-suites for all in-patients – the first of its kind in the country.
We employ more than 7,000 full and part-time staff in a huge range of clinical and non-clinical roles across both of our hospital sites.
