### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

Induction

The post will have a formal induction process to familiarise you with the hospital, department and specialty. If it is appropriate, this will include an introduction to safe laboratory practice and basic skills relating to laboratory work relevant to haemostasis and thrombosis. Further induction requirements will be assessed on an individual’s previous experience and educational needs.

Clinical and Laboratory

This post will support the delivery of all aspects of H&T. This includes the delivery of the day-to-day aspects of care, as well as the designated specialist services.  UHL is registered as a Haemophilia Comprehensive care centre in addition to a registered treatment centre for Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. This includes caring for such patients with a known diagnosis within the wider multi-disciplinary team, such as at specialist clinics and MDT meetings. The MDT includes medical and nursing staff as well as psychology, physiotherapy and operational staff. We also host the regional Infected Blood Psychology service and work collaboratively with the voluntary sector to support those affected.

The focus of the role will be on developing an individual in their interest for H&T, whilst supporting the delivery of the clinical services across UHL. UHL is a specialist cardiothoracic centre delivering extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) services as well as specialist maternity centre so there are plenty of opportunities both within and outside the H&T service to develop project work.

There will also be an opportunity to support the development of laboratory relevant protocols and educational resources, as well as working towards publications in this specialist field.
