Equipment Maintenance: Perform routine maintenance and calibration of Fibroscan machines in line with manufacturer protocols. Infection Control: Maintain high standards of hygiene and infection control. Data Collection & Recording: Accurately record Fibroscan results on hospital systems, maintain databases. Pathway Management: Identify appropriate patients, maintain recalls (e.g., Varices, Hepatocellular Carcinoma surveillance) Liaison & Communication: scheduling clinics, arranging appointments. Reporting: Timely data submission to national audits.

At East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now. We run the following hospitals:

  • The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
  • New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
  • Hertford County, Hertford
  • Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood
  • We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda. We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. This means that any employee is entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns and we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made and considered formally, and will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.
