Could you be an MLAS Facilitator?

Posted on Updated on

We are currently searching for people to join our team of MLAS Facilitators who could cover areas in Northamptonshire, Essex and Suffolk. If you have excellent organisation, time management and a passion for helping others this role may be for you.

MLAS (“My Life After Stroke”) is a self-management programme for stroke survivors and their carers. The course is one component of a new model of primary care services for stroke currently being tested in a clinical trial organised by researchers at the University of Cambridge.

The role of an MLAS Facilitator is to help deliver individual and group sessions for stroke survivors and their carers. As an MLAS facilitator you will be paid for your time and receive specialist training. You do not need to be clinically trained to become a facilitator. If you would like to become a facilitator you will be asked to attend 3 days of specialist training in January in Cambridge. You may also be asked to ensure that your core skills such as Manual Handling and Basic Life Support are up-to-date if you do not already have these.

If you would like to find out more about the MLAS programme or you are interested in becoming an MLAS facilitator please contact us at ipcas@medschl.cam.ac.uk or check out the links below to find out more details:
