This is a specialist role within the Medical Devices Clinical Support Unit (within Clinical Engineering). Core aspects of this role will be:
Medical Devices implementation -
The post holder will variously lead, support, coordinate and facilitate medical device technology implementation - which can involve device deployment scheduling and logistical planning, preparatory and enabling tasks, (e.g.: coordination of inter-departmental commissioning activities, development of user competency standards and lesson plans, establishment of agreed device configuration protocols, organisation of device accessories / consumables, etc.) - in conjunction with clinical teams, support services and other stakeholders.
Additionally ....
Medical Devices safe & effective usage -
The post-holder will serve as a specialist adviser on medical device application issues – responding to usage issues arising and supporting incident investigations and safety alert responses when needed.
Medical Devices acquisition -
The post-holder may be seconded, in a key role, to medical technology evaluation and device selection projects (components of which can include - needs capture and specification production; technical assessments, clinical-based usage assessments; simulation-based usage assessments; human factors assessments; financial and service model assessments, etc.). The post-holder may also support the pre-acquisition approval of selected medical devices, with responsibility for ensuring that clinical information and training needs will be adequately met.
The scope of these duties is such that the post-holder’s work may involve a wide variety of medical device technologies and any clinical specialty. The post holder is expected to work closely with clinical teams and the medical devices training service to support the efficient and effective deployment of these devices. When seconded to evaluation or deployment projects the post holder may facilitate and monitor progress of programmes of work and provide practical support to the clinical teams, technical teams, simulation centre teams, training teams, health technology assessment (HTA) specialists, ICT teams and other stakeholders as required, as well as working closely with staff from Finance and Procurement as necessary. A key element of the role is therefore leading, influencing and delivering projects and operational services across multidisciplinary teams – good organisation and communication skills are therefore essential.
