We are recruiting for a Phlebotomist who wishes to join our busy Phlebotomy team at #TeamIOWNHS. You should share our passion and drive to ensure that our patients and staff receive quality and compassionate care and work with us to ensure the Trust continues its journey towards great people, great place.
The Phlebotomy team provides a phlebotomy service to the hospital wards and the walk-in clinic.
Applicants ideally will have recent / previous experience in phlebotomy. Refresher training can be arranged if required and personal development is actively encouraged.
As a Phlebotomist you would be part of the phlebotomy team working within the wards and clinic collecting blood samples. You should be an effective communicator, have a keen eye for detail and be able to work under pressure.
At the present time the department operates between 07:30 and 16:30 Monday to Friday plus weekend shifts. Successful candidates will be required to work flexibly across all shifts and any future potential areas where phlebotomy is required.
Our 2020-2025 strategy sets out to ensure that we continue to be a provider of excellent and compassionate care. We are passionate about providing excellent CARE, which is why our values are Compassion, Accountable, Respect and Everyone counts. Our mission is to make sure that our community is at the heart of everything we do and that we hold our values across all our services.
We are committed to endorsing inclusion, diversity and multiculturalism throughout out services and as such, our procedures and policies ensure that applicants are always treated fairly throughout the recruitment process.
Working for our Trust brings a variety of benefits, including an onsite day nursery, cycle-to-work scheme, discounts at local businesses and gyms, and the opportunity to hire Trusts beach hut in Ryde. We offer flexible working opportunities, speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement for you and if it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.
The Isle of Wight is a unique and stunning gem located off the South Coast of England, a short ferry journey from Portsmouth and Southampton, with journey times taking from as little as 10 minutes. London can be reached in 90 minutes by rail from Southampton or Portsmouth. The island offers an amazing coastline with beautiful countryside, year-round events, festivals and award-winning attractions.
You will contribute to the provision of a high quality, phlebotomy service for patients on the Isle of Wight by obtaining blood samples from patients through venepuncture and ensuring that blood samples are labelled correctly in preparation for being forwarded to laboratories.
The collection of blood by venepuncture will take place in designated areas i.e. the Phlebotomy Outpatients Departments at St. Mary’s and the wards at St. Mary’s Hospital. However, phlebotomists may also be asked to attend other Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Trust properties in the performance of their duties.
