Equipment Service – Further Information:
The aim of the Equipment Service is to make sure that clients get the equipment they need and are confident in using it. We support clients to be independent by helping to remove some of the barriers they face because of their hearing loss.
The Deaf Equipment Service is contracted to CfD by Bristol City Council. CfD has run the Equipment Service for Deaf and hard of hearing people for over 10 years. Our Equipment Officers make pre-arranged visits to the homes of Deaf, deafblind and hard of hearing people within the city of Bristol. We carry out assessments to find out what clients need and then supply the equipment (usually free of charge), provide training so clients know how to use it and support clients if they need repairs or replacement equipment. Every year we work with around 400 clients. The equipment we supply includes TV listening devices, flashing doorbells, amplified telephones and personal listeners. We are developing an outreach programme to try and reach as many deaf people in Bristol as we can.
As the Manager of the Equipment Service, your main tasks will be:
1. Manage, maintain, and improve the Equipment Service to make sure all KPIs are met.
2. Manage the Equipment Service budget and make sure all activities are delivered within budget.
3. Manage the two part-time Equipment Officers and the two CfD Administrators, including conducting supervisions, and chairing team meetings.
4. Develop and implement the marketing strategy for the Equipment Service so that the service expands to meet our new targets.
5. Support the administrators to monitor the Equipment Service email inbox, responding promptly to all customer related queries.
6. Keep records using CfD’s Charitylog database, electronic files and some paper records.
7. Produce regular reports and statistics on work done.

a. Exploring how workshops on hearing loss can be used to support hard of hearing people.
b. Developing peer-support as a way of promoting the wellbeing of hard of hearing people.
