This is an excellent opportunity for Registered Mental Health Nurses who aspire to work in a changing and evolving inpatient service. The services provide care and treatment for a wide range of psychiatric conditions.
You will receive a comprehensive induction package and supportive educational development including Flying Start for newly registered staff. We are committed to participate in the Mentorship programme, staff supervision and personal development.
As a clinician you will join a service that is committed to multi-disciplinary team working with strong links to both inpatient and community services. You will be responsible for the assessment of care needs and the development, implementation and evaluation of programmes of care.
The shift pattern of the inpatient service covers 24 hours over 7 days and there will be an expectation that successful candidates will rotate on to night duty.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. Your offer/contract of employment will therefore reflect the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your Hiring Manager.
A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme Prior to appointment.
