Advance Podiatrist in Diabetes

Band 7 advance podiatrist – Permanent position working 30 hours a week

A rare opportunity has arisen for a passionate advanced podiatrist to join the well-established diabetes foot service in Dorset working for Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust.

This is a progressive service with two Consultant Podiatrists leading the in-patient and out-patient management of people with diabetes related foot complications. You will be working as part of the wider MDT, as well as providing expert clinical practice within the podiatry team. Your clinical work will be within the diabetes foot clinics at University Hospitals Dorset (Royal Bournemouth and Poole Hospitals), but you will work closely with community podiatrists, community nurses and primary care teams. You will be able to demonstrate the four pillars of advanced practice, including non-medical prescribing. Opportunities for further studies will be available and encouraged.
