The post holder will be responsible for fit testing to ensure masks that are either disposable or re-useable fit the face of an individual and also play a key role in educating staff on the best practice of donning and doffing Respiratory Protective Equipment, and the maintenance of respiratory hoods.
The post holder will assist in organising sessions, setting up the environment and equipment in the allocated room in preparation for testing. Where required, the post holder will need to advise on alternatives for respiratory protection where fit testing is unsuccessful and update training records accordingly.
The post holder is required to understand the different methods of fit testing. Previous mask fit experience is not essential as the individual will be given full training and supported to further their knowledge and development in this clinical field.
In addition, the post holder will be required to undertake a variety of ad hoc IP audits and deliver specific IP training to their ability. The successful person will work five days per week, covering a 7 days service at both the Royal Stoke University Hospital and the County Hospital site.
Informal enquiries are encouraged and should be directed to Haidee Sim or Jo-Anne Rimmer in the Infection Prevention Team on extension 76360 (01782 676360) at the Royal Stoke University Hospital.
