Imaging Department Assistant Lead - ULTRASOUND
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Ultrasound Team as an Imaging Department Assistant Lead.
The successful applicant is required to provide a supportive role to the Ultrasound team and have previous IDA experience, ensuring the delivery of an efficient and effective service. You will work as part of the team to give the best quality of service by assisting sonographers, nurses, and medical staff by carrying out non-radiographic clinical and non-clinical tasks within the Maternity and General Medical Ultrasound Departments throughout the Imaging Directorate.
A caring, co-operative, and flexible approach to working practices is required whilst maintaining a professional attitude for the dignity and well-being of the patient.

The Ultrasound Department provides a 7-day service with hours between 8:30 am and 8:00 pm across both Royal Stoke and County sites and multiple community units. Therefore, it is essential that the post holder is a vehicle owner and has a full driving license.
