About the Role
At East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust Cardiology Services, we want our staff to wake up inspired to come to work, valued when at work, and fulfilled when leaving at the end of the day.
Come and join us on an exciting journey of modern development, enthusiastically embracing physiology-led services, facing challenges with originality, and building a team that's committed to supporting you and your career.
We are looking for a band 3 cardiac physiology associate to work across Trust sites in Eastbourne, Hastings, and Bexhill. You will join our physiology associate team fitting cardiac monitors for heart rhythm and blood pressure, performing ECGs, assisting the cardiac physiologists in exercise testing, and analyzing 24-hour ECG Holter recordings. There is also a small commitment to assisting the Respiratory team with spirometry and FeNo testing.
Whilst this role would suit candidates with previous healthcare experience, we will consider applicants from other backgrounds with the skills and aptitude to work supporting our patients and wider Cardiology team.

- Set up ECG and pressure monitoring, record patient and procedure data prior to, during, and post-procedure.

- Respond as part of the team should a cardiac arrest occur (normal physiology role in a cardiac arrest is to run the defibrillator).
- Detach patient at the end of the case and clean the patient area and equipment ready for the next case.
