NHS Scotland

NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Healthcare Support Worker to join the team within the Urology Diagnostic and Treatment Centre. The units are based at Queen Margaret and Victoria Hospitals and undertake outpatient work, providing a range of clinics and urological tests and treatments to the residents of Fife.

We are looking for a team player with excellent communication skills necessary to perform this role safely and efficiently. The role involves supporting the clinicians to undertake their clinics by assisting with flexible cystoscopsies and use of other urological assessment tools. You will also be responsible for assisting with the nurse led clinics, undertaking tasks such as catheter changes, trial without catheter (TWOC), and flow and scans, under the direction of the nurse in charge.

Candidates should be enthusiastic, dynamic, caring and compassionate, with a keen interest in urological nursing. You should be self motivated, and strive to deliver high quality patient focused care. Experience within a urology or outpatient setting is desirable, although not essential, as supervision and support will be available to orientate you into the role.

For informal enquiries please contact Jackie Stecka, Senior Charge Nurse on ext 21536.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board.

Please note the salary for this post is pro rata to part time hours.

A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme Prior to appointment.
