A Vacancy at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust.


The post holder will undertake a 12–14 month training programme as a Healthcare Science Level 2 Apprentice within the Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust (CHFT).

Study will take place in partnership with the Sheffield College.
• Previous applicants need not apply.
• Please note this apprenticeship is open to all ages.

This is a full-time post and there is an expectation that the apprentice will need to commit to self-directed study, attend Sheffield college virtually and in person, and successfully complete the training programme within the contract period. The post holder will receive 20% off the job training to fulfil the apprenticeship standard. On successful completion of the apprenticeship and probationary period the post holder will be offered a permanent post of Cardio-Respiratory Healthcare Science Assistant (Band 2).

As an apprentice all tasks will be under direct supervision until competency through formal assessment is achieved and will include the following main duties within the cardiorespiratory department:

We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services. They are part of the NHS – yet decisions about what they do and how they do it are driven by independent boards. Boards listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff and the local community.

Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in the changes to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.

THE BENEFITS OF WORKING FOR A CHARITY

Working for a charity can offer a range of unique benefits compared to working for a commercial business. If it is your first time applying for a job at a charity organisation below are some of the notable differences between us and a commercial, corporate organisation:

o SENSE OF PURPOSE: Many people find working for a charity to be more personally fulfilling because they contribute to a cause or mission that aligns with their values. The sense of purpose derived from making a positive impact on society can be a powerful motivator.
o SOCIAL IMPACT: Charities typically focus on addressing social issues, whether it's healthcare, education, poverty, or the environment. Working for a charity allows employees to be part of efforts to create positive social change and improve the lives of others.
o DIVERSE AND INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT: Charities often have a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion, reflecting the diverse communities they serve. Employees may find themselves working alongside people with varied backgrounds and perspectives.
o SKILL DEVELOPMENT: Working for a charity may provide opportunities for employees to develop a wide range of skills. With limited resources, employees often take on multiple roles and responsibilities, allowing for skill diversification and professional growth.
o COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: Charities are usually deeply connected to the communities they serve. Employees may have the chance to engage directly with beneficiaries, volunteers, and community partners, fostering a strong sense of community and interconnectedness.
o FLEXIBILITY AND PASSION-DRIVEN WORK: While this may not be universally true, some charities offer a more flexible work environment, recognising the passion and commitment of their employees. This can lead to increased job satisfaction and work-life balance.
o POSITIVE WORKPLACE CULTURE: Charities often foster a positive and collaborative workplace culture where employees share a common goal and work together to achieve it. This sense of camaraderie can contribute to a supportive and encouraging work environment.
o YOU ARE NOT MAKING MONEY FOR A BOARD OF DIRECTORS: At Walsingham, any surplus funds generated by the charity goes back into the care of the service users not pay bonuses to directors.
o JOB STABILITY: According to Tori Utley's article for Forbes magazine in 2016, charities are less likely to take risks when expanding, so are less likely to suffer financially compared to companies that focus purely on profit. Many non-profit organisations do not have private owners, and they do not issue stock or pay dividends as rewards.

A Vacancy at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust.


We are looking to appoint a Respiratory Physiologist on a permanent basis to provide a high quality, patient focused, efficient Respiratory service, and assist with the development of the sleep service within Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust.

The post-holder will need to demonstrate a history of training staff and be committed to providing a high-quality service and developing services. We are also involved in the development of a Community Diagnostic Centre in Halifax and Huddersfield (in 2025) where lung function testing will be provided as part of a breathlessness pathway.

The successful applicant should posses a BSc in Clinical Physiology/Science with post qualification experience working at Band 6 Specialist Physiologist level.



The Highly Specialised Respiratory and Sleep Physiologist works under the general supervision of the Clinical Physiologist Service Lead for Respiratory for Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust to provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment of a wide range of respiratory, sleep and ventilation disorders including outpatient respiratory and sleep testing, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, comprehensive patient care and direct patient education.

Main duties include:
• To support the Clinical Physiologist Service Lead in Respiratory in delivery of the Respiratory diagnostic services by facilitating, devising, and delivering systems to ensure compliance with safe working practices within Respiratory Physiology.
• To assist the Clinical Physiologist Service Lead in Respiratory and Highly Specilaised Physiologists to develop a sleep service
• Responsible for the day to day organization, and management of the departmental Respiratory Physiology Service, including the delegation of duties to other members of staff, supervision and ensuring effective time management.

We provide community health services, including sexual health services in Calderdale from Calderdale Royal and local health centres. These include Todmorden Health Centre and Broad Street Plaza.

We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services. They are part of the NHS – yet decisions about what they do and how they do it are driven by independent boards. Boards listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff and the local community.

Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in the changes to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.
