Op Courage provides a complete pathway and is delivered by a multi-disciplinary team which includes nurses, psychologists, pharmacists, psychiatrists, occupational therapists, support workers, and operational and administrative staff.

Keyworker Lead
North Staffordshire Combined Healthcare Trust View all jobs
Posted 23 day(s) ago
Reference: 232-SPL-8254905
Job summary
A full-time opportunity for a Band 7 Keyworker Lead for the Children's and Young Persons Keyworker Team based at Dragon Square.
This exciting opportunity has risen for a permanent role as part of a key worker team.
The Keyworker is part of the NHS long term plan. The vision is for all children and young people with learning disabilities and/or autism to have a designated key worker by end 2026/27. Initially the priority will be for all children and young people currently in hospital to have a key worker, then for children and young people who are at risk of going into hospital (red/amber on the Dynamic Support Registers), and with evaluation of the pilot, the aim will be to develop keyworking for all children and young people with learning disabilities and/or autism by end 2026/27.
The 0-25 year's model aims to support reduction of the number of children in crisis and Tier 4 admissions, support timely assessments/formulations, provide children and families with the support that they need at the right time, and improve transitions and quality of life, resulting in happy children and parents.
A key function will be to empower families and support them with navigating barriers across multiple services and organisations to effectively access the right support from the system. Our keyworking model is about a set of functions introduced to the system via the keyworking role, in addition to the current roles in place to support children, young people and their families.
Main duties of the job
The post holder will supervise the non-clinical practice of the keyworking team, especially with regard to the most complex cases - mentoring, upskilling, co-working - and lead on improving practice and quality of service within the keyworking team. They will provide operational management for team members and the hub functions, be responsible for case prioritisation and allocation to the team and drive the implementation of appropriate approaches to be used within the keyworking function.
They will carry their own keyworking caseload including highly complex cases, and co-working with keyworkers to support complex case practice development. They will lead by example, developing creative solutions to situations such as effective use of personal budgets.
They will identify gaps in and barriers to effective multi-agency working for the CYP and their families, challenging these and using information to inform system wide commissioning and workforce development.
This person needs to be highly experienced with a wide breadth of experience and relevant qualities, passion and vision to be effective in this pivotal role.
About us
As a Trust we remain bold and ambitious with plans for both service and system collaborative transformation over the coming years to improve the health and wellbeing of our local people through high quality care.
We pride ourselves onensuring our team has their wellbeing put first and as such provide a range of wellness opportunities including flexible working.
We are committed to the Greener NHS national ambition to becoming the world's first 'carbon net zero' national health system by 2045 (Greener NHS (england.nhs.uk). As part of this, sustainability is embedded in our strategy as one of our four key enablers. In order to deliver on this commitment, we recognise that we need a workforce that is as passionate as we are about achieving these goals, for the benefit of our service users, workforce, local communities and the planet alike.
The Trust is committed to ensuring that a diverse workforce is representative and inclusive at all levels. We would very much welcome applications from all under-represented groups including women, people with disabilities, people from global majority backgrounds, and those from the lesbian, gay, bi and trans communities.
The Trust is committed to the Step into Health scheme and actively encourages applicants from the Armed Forces Communities to apply.

Decontamination Technician
The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust View all jobs
Posted 23 day(s) ago
Reference: 223-DCT-612-A
Job summary
**PLEASE NOTE THIS ROLE IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SPONSORSHIP**
We are looking for a motivated person who is interested in helping to provide a safe, high quality Endoscopy Decontamination service to patients at The Princess Royal Hospital, Telford.
You'll work closely with the team to provide the best care for our patients working under strict guidelines and protocols. However once training has been provided, staff will look to you for advice and expertise regarding decontamination and best practice.
You must be conscientious and have the ability to give attention to detail. You will need to possess GCSE grades 9 - 4 (or equivalent) in Maths and English and have the ability to work to tight deadlines as the Endoscopy Unit is extremely busy with all three procedure rooms running to full capacity.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills and the ability to work well within a team are essential. You must also have excellent documentation and record keeping skills.
Experience is desirable but not required as full training will be given.
Main duties of the job
The job involves the manual cleaning and decontamination of flexible endoscopes before and after Endoscopy.
Manual dexterity is an essential requirement to the role. You will become an expert in this area and will be expected to take a lead in the decontamination room. This will involve managing the equipment so that scopes are ready for morning, afternoon and evening lists.
You will also be required to send scopes away for service and repair.
The Endoscopy Unit provides a service to both outpatients and in-patients undergoing Gastroscopy, EUS, Flexible Sigmoidoscopy, Colonoscopy, Bronchoscopy EBUS and PEG insertion. The unit is currently open 7 days a week including weekends and bank holidays.
We will provide in house training and fully support your professional development.
About us
Our Poppy's Promise Commitment
We believe that compassionate care sits at the heart of everything we do. Every member of our team -- clinical or non-clinical -- plays a vital role in ensuring that patients, families, and colleagues are treated with dignity, empathy, and respect at all times.
We expect all staff to demonstrate compassion not only through their words, but through their actions: by listening attentively, communicating clearly and kindly, and recognising individual needs, feelings, and circumstances of those in our care.
Effective communication is central to safe and high-quality healthcare. We value colleagues who take the time to understand others, explain information in a meaningful way, and respond to concerns with patience and understanding.
By joining our team, you are committing to uphold these values -- ensuring that every patient feels heard, respected, and valued, and that compassion is embedded in every interaction, every day.
Hospital Transformation Programme (HTP)
Our Service will relocate to The Royal Shrewsbury Hospital in 2028 as part of HTP. This move will bring specialist services together in a modern, purpose-built facility to improve patient care and team experience.
We are actively recruiting, and successful candidates will be expected to move with the Service in early 2028. The relocation will follow a formal management of change process, including full consultation and support for staff.
