An exciting opportunity has been created in the Royal London Hospital Acute SLT Team for an experienced clinician to support our small team to provide clinical leadership, expertise and training for staff on key areas of clinical practice:
• Critical Care (including management of tracheostomised and ventilated patients)
• FEES training (Must be at Level 3)
• Videofluoroscopy training (RCSLT Level 3 or equivalent)
We are looking for a highly experienced and dynamic individual who is committed to working alongside our existing Clinical Leadership team to promote evidence-based practice in the assessment and treatment of patients with swallowing and communication difficulties. The postholder should therefore have an active interest and experience in clinical research in the field of acute speech & language therapy practice.
You will be a strong, compassionate and visible leader with the ability to build relationships with partners outside of SLT and influence others.

This role is focused on leadership in these domains with no direct operational or management responsibilities to enable our team to innovate and excel.

• To lead on clinical education, competencies and guideline development to ensure an evidence based service is provided by the team
• To lead on the development of skills and knowledge across the team in the specialist areas of Critical Care, FEES and videofluoroscopy
• To seek opportunities to continuously develop the service in these clinical areas to ensure the delivery of best practice and safe patient-centred care at all times
• To identify research opportunities and lead the therapy involvement in research trials within Critical Care or pertaining to dysphagia / FEES or videofluoroscopy.
• To use expert clinical reasoning skills to provide highly specialist support and advice to the Speech & Language Therapy team and other medical staff, whilst maintaining a clinical caseload of highly complex patients
