Job description

All staff at this organisation have a duty to

conform to the following

Equality,

Diversity and Inclusion

A

good attitude and positive action towards Equality Diversity

& Inclusion

(ED&I) creates an environment where all individuals can achieve their full

potential. Creating such an environment is important for three reasons it

improves operational effectiveness, it is morally the right thing to do, and it

is required by law.

Patients

and their families have the right to be treated fairly and be routinely

involved in decisions about their treatment and care. They can expect to be

treated with dignity and respect and will not be discriminated against on any

grounds including age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil

partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual

orientation. Patients have a responsibility to treat other patients and our

staff with dignity and respect.

Staff

have the right to be treated fairly in recruitment and career progression.

Staff can expect to work in an environment where diversity is valued, and

orientation. Staff have a responsibility to ensure that they treat our patients

and their colleagues with dignity and respect.

Quality

others about current and future developments (e.g., courses and conferences).

and colleagues in an environment that facilitates learning.

Collaborative

working

their own role and scope and identify how this may develop over time. Staff are

to prioritise their own workload and ensure effective time-management

strategies are embedded within the culture of the team.

is essential in multidisciplinary environments, and the post-holder is to work

as an effective and responsible team member, supporting others and exploring

the mechanisms to develop new ways of working and to work effectively with

others to clearly define values, direction and policies impacting upon care
