Calling RMNs . Are you passionate about mental health care and you ready for a new challenge? We are working differently and innovatively to optimise holistic and patient centred care. If you have a particular interest in mental health and want to develop your mental health skills then this role provides an exciting opportunity for you. TEWV is developing a forward thinking nursing vision and robust defined career pathways. As an RMN you may be responsible for the day to day running of the ward.

As a Registered Mental Health Nurse on Danby Ward, you will work alongside a team of nurses, psychologists, occupational therapists and medics as part of a large multi-disciplinary team approach striving towards excellent patient care. You will be expected to carry out all aspects of patient care including medication, one to one time with patients, observations including physical health observations, co-ordination of the shift and, depending on experience, nurse in charge. We offer a full induction process and training to ensure you have the required confidence, knowledge and skills for this role.
Each inpatient ward is fully equipped with activity and therapeutic spaces to enable patients to recover in a timely way so that they can be safely discharged back into their community with identified support packages.
