Our adult audiology service includes the fitting of routine and non-routine hearing aids, complex diagnostics, vestibular assessment. hearing therapy and tinnitus management. Our paediatric audiology service includes assessing babies referred from the Newborn Hearing Screening Programme, the behavioural and objective assessment of children of all ages and the habilitation of children with hearing loss. We also have an auditory implant programme where we assess patients’ suitability for Cochlear Implants, Bone Anchored Hearing Aids and Middle Ear Implants, and manage the fitting, programming, maintenance, and evaluation of these devices. You would be joining a large team comprising Clinical Scientists (Audiology), audiologists, assistant audiologists and administrative colleagues. We have significant experience of training including degree apprenticeship and PTP schemes as well as the STP programme, and the department has a designated Audiology Training Lead. The service has undergone significant development over recent years, and we are actively working towards IQIPS accreditation. You will be based at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, although occasional travel to clinics across Oxfordshire may be required (e.g. Banbury, Didcot, Wantage).

The cranio-maxillofacial prosthetic service at The QVH is the largest of its type in the UK. The department provides assessment, device treatment and ongoing prosthetic support for patients that require an artificial ear, nose, eye, jaw (obturator) or section of face. In addition to prosthetic restoration, we also treat patients that require head/neck pressure therapy splints for the management of post-burn scarring. Using the latest 3D technologies, the onsite maxillofacial laboratory is able to design and manufacture surgical implants such as titanium skull plates (for cranioplasty) and silicone elastomer body/chest implants (for plastic surgery). Custom made medical devices may be used to treat head and neck patients that have had cancer, burns or other traumatic injury to the skull, eyes, face and jaws. Prostheses are also used to treat those born without an ear, eye or a section of their face/jaws. Safe application of the latest head and neck reconstructive science techniques, an optimal prosthetic outcome and a consistent approach to the ongoing management of patients in our care are the key objectives of our staff. The onsite prosthetic clinic at QVH is open from 8.30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday and the team are happy to answer queries from patients or healthcare colleagues, regarding prostheses, appliances and medical devices for the head and neck. There is also an out of hours, on-call service, for emergency-urgent episodes at evenings and weekends. The service is licensed with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), and is a National School of Healthcare Science recognised training centre for the speciality of Reconstructive Sciences.
