The role is largely focussed on Hepatitis C management covering testing and treatment in many different settings including testing campaigns, outreach clinics, GP surgeries, drug and alcohol services, mobile van and prisons, with a vision to include other areas of liver health. This post will cover the Swindon area of the Thames Valley region, working with the community team and also the local Hospital Team.

The Thames Valley ODN will offer training and development within our friendly and supportive multidisciplinary team to develop this specialist role.
