Summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Band 6 role within the Resuscitation and Simulation Department. This is for a 12 month Maternity Cover. This is a cross site post, working across multiple acute hospital sites and satellite units as part of the wider team working across Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust. This is a full-time post.
The role will provide an opportunity for motivated and enthusiastic healthcare professionals with an interest in resuscitation to gain valuable experience working across a wide variety of services and alongside staff from all disciplines.
You will be working alongside both Adult and Paediatric Resuscitation Practitioners, supporting the Resuscitation Service Leads to provide a comprehensive and cohesive resuscitation service for the Trust.
As a professional role model you will provide direct and indirect clinical care, ensuring the needs of the patient are central to service delivery. You will monitor and improve standards of care through supervision of practice, clinical audit, evidence based practice, teaching and supporting professional colleagues and the provision of skilled professional leadership. You will actively contribute to the clinical effectiveness processes within the service.
We are looking for a Band 6 Adult Resuscitation Practitioner to become part of our team. You must be enthusiastic, highly motivated, confident, flexible and demonstrate excellent organisational and interpersonal skills. You will work with other members of the Resuscitation Department to support the wider resuscitation team and the range of services it provides across multiple sites.
You will mainly be responsible for delivering national & mandatory training to MFT staff and external candidates. You will also participate in the collection & collation of data for national & local audits, presenting this information as required at the appropriate forums. In addition, you will be required to support the cardiac arrest/emergency teams, providing support & acting as an expert resource to them. As well as the opportunity to develop personally and professionally within the team you’ll be supported to develop as an instructor with a variety of learning opportunities in resuscitation practice & education.
As a Resuscitation Practitioner you will need to develop competence to support all our patients and we will help to support individuals achieve this through continuous professional development (CPD).
MFT is one of the largest NHS Trusts in England with a turnover of £2.8bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.
We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
