Posted 19 day(s) ago
Reference: 342-SS115-0926
Job summary
Southwest Op Courage Integrated Veterans Mental Health and Wellbeing Service covers Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Bristol, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Dorset; our operational base is in Weston-super-Mare. The service is one of six national NHS England-commissioned Op Courage services.
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. This starts with a comprehensive needs-led conversation in line with Your Team, Your Care and Your Plan; it is followed by evidence-based interventions and treatment for a wide range of need and complexity, from the early signs of mental health problems through to complex mental health difficulties and psychological trauma.
The service is delivered via a hybrid working model which entails a mix of homeworking and utilising clinical spaces or hot-desks. Clinical care and interventions are delivered face to face or virtually, in line with patient choice and clinical and/or operational need. The post-holder will need to live within the Southwest and cover an agreed area, and will be assigned to their nearest AWP base. The post-holder will also be expected to travel to attend face-to-face Trust training and meetings, which will be within the Op Courage footprint but may be outside their general working area.
Main duties of the job
The post-holder will need strong clinical skills in assessment, safety assessment, and safety planning, and the ability to provide therapeutic interventions. They will be expected to operate within legislative frameworks -- the Mental Health Act 2007, the Mental Capacity Act 2005, the Care Act 2014, and other relevant health and social care legislation.
The post-holder will help deliver a defined drug and alcohol service to an allocated caseload of service users, having responsibility for the assessment of needs, and the planning and implementation of treatment and care to meet those needs as agreed with the multidisciplinary team and/or supervisor. They will coordinate care (with supervision) for particular clients and contribute to the evaluation of care across a variety of settings where specialist treatment is available.

We operate from two main sites - KGH in Goodmayes and Queen's Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We're campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen's and get rid of corridor care.

Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We're proud to be a London Living Wage employer.

Reference: 340-HAN2-09-26
Job summary
We are expanding, come and grow with us! Do you have excellent communication, listening and computer skills, enjoy solving problems and genuinely want to make a difference in the lives of others? If so, join our army of life-savers as a Health Advisor taking 999 and 111 calls. Being a Health Advisor is challenging but rewarding as you can directly help those most in need. You will work as part of a close-knit team of people who have a passion for helping those in crisis, where no two days are the same. You don't need any medical knowledge, and full training in managing calls and use of our systems will be provided.
This role could be the first step of a great career in healthcare and can give you the knowledge to go even further. In this role you will:
Be a strong communicator, asking questions in a way which can help assess a callers needs in a pressurised environment, where time is of the essence.
Manage calls supported by a computerised medical assessment tool, to help give patients the most appropriate care response. From an ambulance in life-threatening emergencies, through to a GP appointment, dentist appointment, or referring the patient to a range of community-based services, such as a walk-in-center.
Please ensure that you have read the shift pattern document attached before applying. As a 24/7/365 service, you will be expected to work Bank Holidays including Christmas. Any Bank Holidays worked will be added to your holiday allowance.
Main duties of the job
As a Health Advisor for the ambulance service you will be the first point of contact with patients, healthcare professionals and other callers. Working within Operations Centre's located atHQ - Newcastle, Hebburn and Wynyard you will use NHS pathways to record patients demographics and clinical information to assess their condition to ensure they are directed to the most appropriate healthcare professional or service.
You will provide basic advice and health information to patients calling 111, supporting callers to access the appropriate level of care.
Your Training is pass or fail and whilst you will be trained initially to handle 111 calls, over the next 12 months it is expected that you will be given additional skills, via a career progression programme, to enable you to handle 999 Emergency calls. All of our Health Advisors are expected to take both types of calls.
On occasion you may be required to work from one of our alternative sites, to enable the Trust to fulfil its obligations.
In line with the code of practice on English language requirements for public sector workers applicants must have the ability to converse under pressurised circumstances with members of the public and document and provide instruction in accurate spoken and written English.
About us
We employ 3,500 staff in 63 locations and serve a population of 2,600,000 in Northumberland, Tyne & Wear, County Durham, and Tees over 3230 square miles.
Many people think the job of the ambulance service is to collect patients and take them to hospital, but we do much more!
Paramedic skills have developed hugely in recent years, meaning we carry out more treatment at the scene and en-route to hospital.
We have a dedicated clinical assessment service that allows us to provide patients with the most appropriate care from the beginning of the patient journey.
We have a specialised branch of the Trust called HART which deal with explosions or terrorist attacks.
Ultimately patients are the heart of everything that we do to support our mission of "safe, effective and responsive care for all".
We value and respect the diversity employees bring to our workplace. We recruit a workforce that reflects the community we serve, and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds. To ensure we deliver on our aims in relation to diversity and inclusion we assess ourselves against a range of frameworks. We are ENEI Gold employer, Disability Confident Leader, Dyslexia Smart Award employer, Dementia Friendly, and part of Mind Blue Light programme and the Race at Work Charter from the Princes Responsible Business Network and are achieving across all objectives in NHS Equality Delivery System.

ICU Consultant
North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 19 day(s) ago
Reference: 262-A-25-7492119-A
Job summary
There are 9 bed spaces, including a cubicle, with current staffing for up to 8 patients, admitting approximately 840 patients per year. There is executive approval for a 13 bedded rebuild. The unit has 9 consultants with daytime and on call sessions in ICU all of whom have ICU as a major element of their job plan. Thus a consultant rota of 1 in 9 with prospective cover operates. The unit has 24/7 cover by consultants with daytime sessions in ICU, with 2 consultants per day - a 'hot week' consultant (to provide continuity) and a 24hour consultant, who is on call.
There is specific clerical time allocated for ICNARC data collection and the unit has a clinical information system (Metavision) which integrates patient observations, medical and nursing notes, prescribing and results systems at the bedside. This has ongoing customisation which has provided the ICU with a wealth of data capture opportunities. The ICU also has a 24/7 band 7 critical care outreach service to facilitate both admission to and discharge from the ICU as well as numerous educational and audit initiatives.
Main duties of the job
An active Critical Care Outreach Service which is delivered by a team of experienced nursing staff. Lead for outreach is Dr Mark Holliday.
As stated above there will be increased cross site working between the 2 ICUs with contribution from CIC consultants to WCH staffing to reflect the high medical demand of the ICU plus the increased need for patient transfer for major surgery at CIC. The provision of 24/7 intensive care consultant led service is a high priority for WCH and is reflected in the move to cross site working and in this advertisement. Resident staffing has been supported by recruitment of Advanced Critical Care nurse Practitioners and the long term strategy is for a dedicated ICU resident on the WCH site.
About us
At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding healthcare services to the population of North Cumbria. The Trust is committed to creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout our county.
Our 5 key principles demonstrate our belief in the delivery of 'safe, high quality care every time':

- Quality and safety at the heart of our Trust
- A positive patient experience every time

- Managing our money well
As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.

Consultant in Acute Medicine
North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 19 day(s) ago
Reference: 262-A-26-8011446-C
Job summary
Are you considering your next opportunity? If so, we'd love to show you why should consider joining us here in North Cumbria. We're investing into Acute Medicine services, and we can invest in you, too.
There is real scope to shape your role... around what you do best
If you have a special interest in frailty, virtual wards, hospital admission avoidance, front-door streaming or ambulatory care, we would actively welcome a conversation. We are flexible in how roles are built and happy to tailor job plans to align with your interests, experience and development goals. Whether you are passionate about clinical leadership, pathway development, education, or system working across primary and secondary care, there is space here for you to make a meaningful impact.
This is an opportunity to join a service with momentum... and ambition
You will be joining a team that is honest about the challenges of acute care, but equally committed to doing things better: for patients and for staff. Our vision is clear: the right patient, in the right place, at the right time, led by the right clinician. If you're looking for a role where your expertise is valued, your ideas welcomed, and the service is genuinely evolving rather than standing still, we'd encourage you to get in touch for an informal discussion.
Main duties of the job
New leadership and investment at North Cumbria Integrated Care has created an opportunity for 5 new Acute Medical Consultants who will be integral to the redesign of our Acute Medicine services.
New funding will mean we can facilitate early senior decision making, expand Medical SDEC facilities and advise from the point of referral in our new single point of access Hub.
Working for NCIC, you will benefit from:
- An enhanced SPA plan with 3 SPAs made up of 1.5 for core SPA, and the other 1.5 for your specialist interest.
- Excellent research, teaching and innovative opportunities from our partnerships with the Pears Cumbria School of Medicine and our regional providers in the Great North Healthcare Alliance.
- A leadership development pathway for Consultants, right through to Executive Medical Director.
Investment Into Our Future
The Trust Board has recently approved a £4 million investment into our Urgent and Emergency Care services.
The investment will support a modern Acute Medical service, including a significantly expanded and purpose-built Medical Same Day Emergency Care unit, with protected consultant presence and strengthened multidisciplinary working.
Our future model prioritises early senior review, ambulatory pathways, frailty-focused care and better use of virtual wards and community services. This is about delivering safer care, reducing unnecessary admissions, and improving across the whole hospital... not firefighting in Emergency Department corridors.
About us
Our CEO, Trudie Davies, and Executive Medical Director, Adrian Clements, would love to hear from you to discuss your future career in North Cumbria. To arrange an informal chat, please contact Sally Rushton on [email protected] for Trudie and Julia McClune on [email protected] for Adrian.
At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding healthcare services to the population of North Cumbria. The Trust is committed to creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout our county.
