Hepatitis Viral Specialist Nurse

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust


Date: 4 days ago
City: Leicester
Contract type: Full time
An exciting opportunity to provide clinical expertise as part of the University Hospitals of Leicester Emergency Department Blood Borne Virus opt-out testing programme.

Working with one of the busiest Emergency Departments in England, seeing on average 18,000 attendances per month, the post holder will be responsible for the management and treatment of patients identified with Hepatitis B through the Emergency Department opt-out Blood Borne Virus screening programme and other referral routes.

We are looking for a highly motivated, hardworking and enthusiastic clinical nurse specialist, responsible for communicating and receiving sensitive diagnosis of Hepatitis viral infection and supporting patients to understand treatment options.

The post holder will act as a clinical expert, providing professional information and resources for patients, their carers and the multi-disciplinary team, providing excellent clinical leadership for this patient group.

Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).

We Have Four Primary Goals

  • high-quality care for all,
  • being a great place to work,
  • partnerships for impact, and
  • research and education excellence

And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.

Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:

  • we are compassionate,
  • we are proud,
  • we are inclusive, and
  • we are one team

This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
