Our Staff Nurses work within multi-professional teams leading patient care and contributing to complex discharge planning. They provide 24/7 care, admitting patients from acute services and community step up.
Our patients all have complex conditions and multiple pathologies which require knowledge and creativity to manage well.
We are looking for positive, proactive nurses who want to develop their knowledge, skills and experience and develop leadership skills in planning and managing patient care from admission to discharge.
Our committed team of highly skilled Staff Nurses on our in-patient wards provide high level, patient focused care supporting people with complex, predominantly physical long term conditions, and people following an episode of acute care who require some further rehabilitation prior to returning home. They work closely with Allied Health Professionals and medical teams leading the planning of complex discharges and on-going community care. They develop skills, knowledge and experience in a wide range of physical conditions and multiple pathologies.
They support Student Nurses and Trainee Nurse Associates to develop our future workforce and have an excellent reputation for their teaching and support.
