Summary
Calderdale & Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our friendly Immunisation Team.
The team are responsible for the delivery of the Department of Health (DH) School Aged Vaccination Programme across Calderdale.
We work with parents, children and schools to promote the uptake of vaccinations.
The successful candidate will help to deliver the school aged vaccination programme in a safe and inclusive manner, working within the NMC code of conduct.
We employ more than 6,500 staff who deliver compassionate care from our two main hospitals, Calderdale Royal Hospital and Huddersfield Royal Infirmary as well as in community sites, health centres and in patients’ homes. We also are incredibly proud to have almost 150 volunteers here at CHFT.
We provide a range of services including urgent and emergency care; medical; surgical; maternity; gynaecology; critical care; children’s and young people’s services; end of life care and outpatient and diagnostic imaging services.
We provide community health services, including sexual health services in Calderdale from Calderdale Royal and local health centres. These include Todmorden Health Centre and Broad Street Plaza.
We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services. They are part of the NHS – yet decisions about what they do and how they do it are driven by independent boards. Boards listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff and the local community.
Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in the changes to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.
