Job summary

We are looking for a registered healthcare professional (e.g.Nurse, Radiographer, Physician Associate or equivalent) to work as a Suspected Cancer Pathway (SCAN) Navigator on a 1-year fixed term contract (or secondment, if applicable) based in the Radiology Department at the Churchill Hospital.

You will need post-graduate NHS experience, advanced communication skills, patient assessment and history taking, and the confidence to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team delivering the SCAN pathway. You will support patients through the diagnostic process, coordinate their care across complex diagnostic pathways and contribute positively to the ongoing development of the service.

This role is suitable for any registered healthcare practitioner who wants to work in a patient-focused, pathway coordination role within a dedicated team.

Main duties of the job

The SCAN (Suspected CANcer) Pathway:

Many patients visit their GP with 'vague' symptoms such as weight loss and tiredness. These symptoms are called 'non-specific' as they affect the whole person.

Often the cause of these symptoms remains unclear after GP assessment. There is commonly a minor cause for such symptoms. However, there is a small chance that they could be the signs of a serious illness, such as cancer. Therefore, these symptoms are often called 'low-risk but not no-risk' symptoms.

The SCAN Pathway provides GP's with access to rapid investigations for patients with 'non-specific' symptoms. This avoids patients can go back and forth between their GP and the hospital many times until a diagnosis is made; this takes time with diagnoses and treatment potentially delayed. Although the risk of serious disease is low, a delay in diagnosis and treatment may have a negative effect on the patients' health and overall wellbeing.

Dependent on these results, an appointment with a Doctor working in a Multi Diagnostic Clinic (MDC) is arranged. The aim is to reach a diagnosis and begin treatment as quickly as possible.

Navigators co-ordinate all aspects of the SCAN pathway, both face to face and virtually; organising appointments, acting as a support and information role for others within the service and undertaking clinical duties.
