We strive to enable a welcoming workplace culture that builds and celebrates civility, inclusivity and diversity, while providing a sense of belonging and trust.
Annual staff surveys, regular Pulse surveys and other engagement opportunities provide our people with lots of opportunity to tell us about their experiences of working with us. In the latest staff survey, 61% of colleagues gave us their views. It was great to hear that:
- 72% of colleagues would recommend the Trust as a place to work, ranking us 1st for Provider Trusts in the South West region on this question.
- 76% would recommend the standard of care provided in our services if a friend or relative needed treatment, also ranking us 1st in the South West region.
- 81% said that care of patients and service users is the Trust's priority, compared with an average in comparable NHS Trusts in England of 64%.
This high-level overview shows we are in a healthy position, with higher scores than average for comparable organisations, alongside a great response rate, indicating good staff engagement. However, we also know we have plenty of room for improvement in many areas. To that end, we continue to prioritise and invest in our commitment to genuinely becoming a Great Place to Work with consistent top-quartile performance in the annual staff survey and Pulse surveys.

Safeguarding Hub Specialist Practitioner, Safeguarding Children Hubs
North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 25 day(s) ago
Reference: 262-A-26-8074337-A
Job summary
Awaiting Job Matching
The post holder will work within a single, county-wide Health Hub team, which provides Health support into two Local Authority-based MASH (Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub) functions. These are the Cumberland Children's Support and Advice Service (CCASS) and Westmorland & Furness Multi Agency Children's Hub (MACH) - referred to as the MASH's for ease within this job description. Both MASH's are dynamic, multi-agency integrated teams with a responsibility to assess notifications, information and referrals related to safeguarding children.
The Hub Health Team process within the MASH's includes (but is not limited to) searching for and collating health information, from a range of NHS providers both locally and further afield. They will be part of the multi-agency decision making process for children and families by providing an analysis of health information. This must be carried out with due regard to patient confidentiality and consent.
The impact on a child's health and their development, must be reflected in any analysis of risk along with the child's chronological age of any safeguarding concerns.
The post holder will work as part of a highly supportive health team, within a wider multiagency environment. The work requires dealing with highly sensitive and complex issues, including situations which may be distressing and challenging.
Main duties of the job
The Hub Health Team's role within the MASH will include the gathering, interpreting, analysis and sharing of the information that is necessary to safeguard and/or promote the welfare of a child and to share this to inform the MASH decision making process.
The integrated MASH teams aim to ensure that all safeguarding referrals are dealt with in a timely and effective manner, and that appropriate decisions on referrals are made in accordance with relevant risk thresholds, on the basis of high quality information sharing from partner agencies.
The Local Authorities hold the statutory responsibility for the management and oversight of the MASH's. Where it is not possible to reach an outcome that all partners agree, the Local Authority will hold final decision making responsibility.
This type of multiagency cooperation is a statutory duty of all professionals delivering care to children and families.
Core elements of a MASH have been agreed by stakeholders as:
1. Providing a single front door for referrals and notifications
2. Co-location and co-operation of key partners
3. Provides a safe confidential environment
4. Enables analysis of risk or need on a case by case basis.

Job summary
Dental Therapist B6
The Trust is seeking to recruit a compassionate and motivated individual to join our existing team of highly skilled clinicians and support staff to provide comprehensive dental care to our patients in West Cumbria.
This post is suitable for candidates who are looking to gain experience working in special care or paediatric dentistry in a community setting. The candidate should have a passion for child and adult dental health and be keen to make a difference to the vulnerable patients seen by our service. Being able to communicate effectively with both patients and staff is essential as you will be responsible for looking after some of the most vulnerable people in society. Previous experience in the use of inhalation sedation would be desirable though certificated training in such would be provided if required. There is also the opportunity to participate in National Dental Epidemiological surveys as part of the role. We have a number of experienced clinicians available and keen to provide support for a new team member.
The post is mostly based at Cleator Moor, a six surgery clinic, with digital radiography, wheelchair tipper and bariatric bench. There would also be some clinical time based at satellite dental clinics either at Workington Community Hospital or West Cumberland Hospital.
Main duties of the job
This role would suit dental therapists who wish to contribute to the maintenance and improvement of the oral health of the local population through direct clinical contact and innovative working with our local health and social care partners and patients.
About us
At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding healthcare services to the population of North Cumbria. The Trust is committed to creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout our county.
Our 5 key principles demonstrate our belief in the delivery of 'safe, high quality care every time':
Being a clinically led organisation
Quality and safety at the heart of our Trust
A positive patient experience every time
A great place to work
Managing our money well
As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.
Across the North East and North Cumbria we are working together to deliver our ambition to be the greenest region in England by 2030. All staff are expected to support sustainability.
