Radiography Advanced Practitioner

Overview

Mid Yorkshire Teaching Trust sits two PFI hospitals in Wakefield and Pontefract, which opened in 2011. Alongside the excellent modern hospital in Dewsbury, these fantastic new buildings have transformed local patient care and improved service delivery. In addition, we now have a Community Diagnostic Centre based in Wakefield, offering a number of diagnostic imaging investigations closer to home.

As an autonomous practitioner within the multidisciplinary team, you will undertake high quality radiography, interpreting MSK, chest and abdominal images and inputting findings into the further management of patients. Based at a specific base site, while rotating across the other Trust sites, the advanced practitioner will work with the consultant radiographer to provide leadership in general radiography and be responsible for your clinical work and professional development.

A 7‑day reporting service is already in operation at MY Trust and the post holder will be expected to contribute to the running of this service.
