Senior Specialist Theatre Practitioner
The theatre department provides a wide range of elective and emergency surgical services across multiple specialities. As a Band 6 Theatre Practitioner, you will work across different theatre environments, supporting patients throughout their perioperative journey while developing and maintaining specialist clinical skills.
You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team to provide safe, effective and patient-centred care. Depending on experience, competencies and service requirements, you may work across anaesthetics, scrub and recovery.
The service operates across a 7-day week, with a variety of shift patterns supporting elective and emergency activity, including 24-hour emergency theatre cover. Shift patterns may vary according to service and speciality requirements, with opportunities for night working where required.
As a practitioner, you will demonstrate clinical leadership, act as a positive role model and support junior staff, newly appointed colleagues and students. You will contribute to maintaining high standards of clinical practice, education, service improvement and clinical governance.
The organisation is committed to lifelong learning and professional development, supporting staff to maintain and enhance their clinical competencies through training, education and development opportunities.
