    Job overview

    Would you like a change of scene or to try something different for a while, working as part of a friendly and supportive team? We're recruiting for maternity cover for a key role in our inpatient dysphagia service at Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital, Grimsby.

    We're looking for an autonomous dysphagia practitioner who shares the team's passion for delivering high quality interventions and embraces our Trust values of kindness, courage and respect.

    We offer regular supervision, joint working, training and CPD opportunities to further develop your clinical skills. The Trust offers a range of Quality Improvement training opportunities with built-in support to work on your chosen service improvement project. Alongside colleagues in the team, you will provide clinical leadership to more junior SLT's and support student placements.

    The wider SLT service encompasses colleagues with similar roles in Scunthorpe, providing regular opportunities for joint working. Our inpatient dysphagia service plans to expand to include rostered Saturday and bank holiday working and this post would contribute to this quality improvement initiative.
