Orthoptist

Opportunity has arisen to provide core and specialist Orthoptic clinics.

The department is keen on professional development and supports the teaching of junior doctors, physician associates, pre-reg Optometrists, Orthoptic Undergraduates and other healthcare professionals so a teaching qualification would be desirable.

The Ophthalmology, Orthoptic and Optometry Departments are based within Calderdale Royal Hospital (Halifax) and Acre Mills Out-patients (opposite Huddersfield Royal Infirmary)

CHFT is an integrated Trust of 6,500+ colleagues providing hospital and community services to patients and communities across Calderdale and Kirklees. We are rated as 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission, are a top performing Trust for Elective Recovery, Emergency and Cancer Care and widely acknowledged as a national digital lead when it comes to caring for people across our local and regional systems.

Our people are at the core of everything we do, hence our commitment to One Culture of Care. Our focus is to care for and support each other in order to provide outstanding compassionate care to our patients. That is why we are looking for an inclusive collaborative, creative, innovative and compassionate leader to join us in this role.
