Are you an experienced Echocardiographer looking for flexible bank work where you can make a real difference to patient care?
We are looking for enthusiastic and experienced Bank Echocardiographers to join our outpatient echocardiography service and help us reduce our current waiting-list backlog.
We can offer complete flexibility around your availability - whether you are looking for occasional sessions, regular weekly work, weekend work or any additional hours. Any hours you can offer would be welcomed.
We are particularly keen to hear from those who can offer regular weekly/weekend bank sessions, although occasional availability will also be considered.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced cardiac physiologist/scientist or echocardiographer who would like to work flexibly, supporting a busy outpatient service while helping us to improve timely access to diagnostic echocardiography for our patients.
As a Bank Echocardiographer, you will undertake high-quality transthoracic echocardiograms (TTEs) within our outpatient setting across our Trust.
You Will Be Expected To
- Perform high-quality adult transthoracic echocardiograms in accordance with departmental protocols and relevant professional standards.
- Obtain accurate measurements and comprehensive diagnostic images.
- Recognise significant or unexpected findings and escalate appropriately.
- Produce clear, accurate and clinically useful reports.
- Work independently while maintaining effective communication with the wider cardiology and clinical teams.
- Contribute directly to reducing our outpatient waiting-list backlog and improving patient experience.
- Maintain high standards of clinical governance, patient safety and infection prevention.
- Work collaboratively with our existing echocardiography team to support an efficient and patient-focused service.
