Band 5 to 6 Clinical Educator - Developmental Post

Avon & Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust; Bristol; On-site; GBP 80,000 - 100,000; Full time

Job description

This is a band 5 or band 6 development post and you will be appointed depending on your experience and qualifications. The band 5 and band 6 job descriptions are attached.

There is a new and rare opportunity to use your recent skills and experience gained whilst working with patients in clinical settings and join an expanding and exciting team to deliver training in the Trust. This team enables staff to meet their Mandatory and Statutory Training (MAST) targets where face to face contact is required to engage in physical interaction. Subjects will include (but not limited to) Basic Resus, PERT, RRI and Manual Handling Level 2 through the provision of a range of training, education and development interventions.

Having experience of delivering training in some form of capacity would be an advantage and there is a requirement to undertake educational qualifications if not already held. Consideration will be given to those candidates holding an NHS professional qualification. The successful candidate will be able to utilize experience gained in working in a healthcare setting with training delivery.

Main duties of the job

The role requires the job holder to deliver a range of MAST to all staff groups and develop the supporting theoretical knowledge and practical understanding. Many programmes will require the post holder to undertake a formal assessment of participants' knowledge and skills. Full development training will be given to the job holder.

Face to face courses will be delivered in external and internal venues across the Trust, so a current driving licence is essential. Must be mobile with the facility to travel across a geographically dispersed area.
