Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone. What is a DBS Check? A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role: Standard DBS: Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings. Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police that’s considered relevant to the role. Enhanced with Barred Lists: Includes all of the above, plus checks against the children’s and/or adults’ barred lists. Who Needs a DBS Check Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role. The Costs for a DBS At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred. For more information about the cost of the various types of DBS, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dbs-fees-are-changing-in-december DBS Update Service Candidates are also expected to register with the DBS Update Service which must be completed within 30 days of the certificate being issued. This helps streamline future employment checks and supports safer recruitment practices. For more information, please visit the DBS Update Service. ### Applicant requirements This post is subject to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (Amendment) (England and Wales) Order 2020 and it will be necessary for a submission for Disclosure to be made to the Disclosure and Barring Service. ## Person Specification ### Experience **Essential** - Practical & formal teaching of Cardiac Physiologists and other HCPs - Multi-disciplinary teamwork **Desirable** - Post qualification experience at Band 6 level - Tertiary cardiac physiology practise - Invasive cardiac physiology practise - Participation in cardiac research ### Qualifications **Essential** - BSc Clinical Physiology/Healthcare Science MSc Clinical Physiology/Healthcare Science or qualifying long service/experience - BHRS or IBHRE in Devices or Electrophysiology **Desirable** - Teaching qualification (T4T, D32) - Voluntary State Registration AHCS or HCPC ### Skills and Knowledge **Essential** - Advanced specialist knowledge in Cardiac Rhythm Management - Competent to practise a wide range of cardiac physiology diagnostics and interventions - Organisation of self and others - Leadership skills - Communication at all levels - Ability to acquire & communicate highly complex knowledge in challenging environments - High level analytical & judgement skill - IT skills **Desirable** - Management skills - Advanced IT skills, data manipulations, etc ## Documents - [fr (pdf, 920.2kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10513951) - [jd (pdf, 176.4kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10513949) - [ps (pdf, 368.6kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10513950) - [inside mft – your candidate place (pdf, 306.4kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2890) ## Agent Notes - This Markdown page is generated from the same Job Clerk job record as the HTML job detail page. - Use the canonical HTML URL for user-facing references. - Use the application URL when the user wants to apply on the source NHS site.
