Crynodeb
This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled, self-motivated and enthusiastic individual to provide professional and efficient equipment organisation and administration service for the Communication Aid Service East of England (CASEE), based at Cambridge University Hospitals (CUH).
CASEE is one of 14 regional specialised Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Services commissioned by NHS England to provide a consistent, equitable AAC Service across England and is managed within the CUH Speech and Language Therapy Service. Our service works closely with local therapy teams to provide a service to children and adults who are eligible for a specialised AAC assessment across the six counties of the East of England.
This is an opportunity to join our specialist multi-professional team comprising Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, Advisory Teacher, Rehabilitation Engineer/Healthcare Scientist, technical team and administrative support team.
Knowledge and experience of assistive technology is desirable, however we welcome applications from people who have an interest in AAC and who are committed to quickly develop the necessary specialist knowledge and skills. Individual personal development needs will be identified and supported.
You will work closely with CASEE's multi-disciplinary team of clinicians and technical staff to look after the equipment we provide to our patients.
You will be based in the CASEE Office but the post-holder will visit the Medical Equipment Library (MEL) and other locations in the main hospital building regularly.
Primary responsibilities include:
• cataloguing new equipment within the CUH medical equipment database (e-Quip)
• ensuring safety checks and asset tagging are completed
• storing equipment in the MEL and workshop areas safely and efficiently and retrieving items when requested
• maintaining records of equipment within BEST (CASEE electronic patient record software)
• monitoring stock and ordering new equipment via Oracle (CUH procurement system)
• ensuring returned equipment is decontaminated and cleared of data
• organising couriers to deliver/collect equipment when necessary
The ability to problem solve, use initiative appropriately, prioritise effectively and remain calm and focused under pressure is important as the position can be demanding.
Excellent attention to detail, communication and interpersonal skills are a priority as the CASEE service supports people who experience severe communication difficulties and are using alternative methods of communication.
