Summary
An exciting position has opened up for a new staff member to join our small, friendly Newborn Hearing team! The Newborn Hearing Screening Programme (NHSP) is a national initiative which aims to detect permanent hearing impairments in newborn babies at the earliest opportunity.
The successful candidate will become part of a five-technician team that undertakes hearing screening on the maternity ward at Leighton Hospital. The team is integral to the wider Paediatric Audiology service in the Women's & Children's division, which lead by a Consultant Audiovestibular Physician.
The role is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to work a flexible daytime shift pattern. No prior experience of hearing screening is required as full training will be provided, and the candidate will be supported to undertake a fully-funded Level 3 Health Screening diploma.
