We are looking for a therapist who is keen to continue developing specialist skills and knowledge in managing adult inpatients with general medical, neurological and age-related conditions. Post-graduate dysphagia qualification or equivalent experience is essential. We run a weekly onsite videofluoroscopy clinic and also have a new FEES service.
You will be joining our large team of 28 speech and language therapists working across UHBW sites. We are a friendly and inclusive team, focused on delivering high-quality, evidence-based care for the communities we serve. We have a strong culture of support, development and leadership including:
• Support in accessing a wide range of training and CPD opportunities to ensure you flourish in your role
• A rolling in-service training programme with brilliant teaching from team members and multi-disciplinary colleagues
• Regular 1:1 and peer supervision
• Commitment to our flexi-time policy to support your work-life balance
• A wealth of wellbeing support and strong team spirit
• Demonstrate expertise in oropharyngeal dysphagia and communication difficulties in patients with progressive neurological, general medical and age-related conditions, and be responsible for managing a defined caseload
• Act as a source of expert, evidence-based information and support for SLT colleagues, healthcare professionals, staff and carers about the SLT issues of patients
• Plan and co-ordinate the content and delivery of education/training sessions to healthcare professionals

As a forward-thinking multi-award winning Trust and a digital exemplar committed to improving patient care, our world-leading research and innovations are having a positive local and global impact. Our hospitals are spread across Bristol and Weston, join us and you can enjoy the very best of both worlds; city living within a stone’s throw of the countryside or beside the seaside, both with easy access to all that the South West has to offer. UHBW is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. As an equal opportunities employer actively working towards a diverse workforce we aim to recruit and retain a workforce which represents the rich diversity of the local population at all levels and are committed to designing our services around the needs of individual patients and those around them.
