Table of Contents

A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen to apply for a Band 6 rotational dietetic post alternating between Major Trauma and Critical Care, with ongoing clinical cover provided across both areas throughout the rotation.

We are looking for a motivated and forward-thinking dietitian to join the multidisciplinary teams within Critical Care and on the Polytrauma Ward at the University Hospital of Wales. This post offers an excellent chance to develop advanced clinical skills in a fast-paced, specialist environment.

You will contribute to the largest Critical Care Unit in Wales and the Tertiary Major Trauma Centre (MTC), a key service within the South West and Mid Wales Trauma Network. This provides varied clinical exposure and strong professional links across six health board areas.

You will work within a friendly and highly skilled department providing secondary and tertiary care and have numerous opportunities for professional and personal development. The team is committed to providing a seven day service to the hospital. You will be actively involved in the research, audit and the Clinical Governance agenda of the department and Health Board.
