The role is for a maximum of 12 hours per month. The role of the national Physical Activity Clinical Champion is to organise and deliver clinician to clinician training on physical activity in clinical care to other NHS health care professionals, which will support to improve patient care and outcomes. The job role will be to strengthen national capacity and leadership for physical activity and contribute towards reducing health inequalities by working across the healthcare sector to improve awareness of physical activity in the prevention and treatment of long-term conditions. The role is supported by a national team and infrastructure based at the AWRC at Sheffield Hallam University, this is an exciting opportunity to work as part of a Sport England project implementing and evaluating a new national delivery model. As part of a larger network of over 30 national, place-based and Specialist Registrar PACCs you will work closely with the central PACC team and national PACCs, to deliver the peer-to-peer training online across the country and locally through both online and face to face sessions. Therefore, you will be based from home. You will be part of a larger network of national, place-based and Specialist Registrar PACCs delivering core PACC training and a number of condition specific slide sets such as mental health, oncology and MSK. Making use of your own networks, you will build relationships with local and regional stakeholders and organisations, support an online national PACC Forum, and encourage healthcare professionals across the country to continue to develop their knowledge and skills. As an experienced Allied Health Professional, Nurse or Midwife, you will have current associated health care registration and very recent or ongoing clinical experience. You will also ideally hold a teaching qualification or have equivalent experience and demonstrate highly competent training and facilitation skills. Knowledge of the role of physical activity as a tool for primary and secondary prevention and management of long-term conditions is essential, and a knowledge of principles and practice of public health including health needs assessment and evidence-based strategies to address health inequalities is desirable.
