We require a nursing auxiliary with a genuine interest in caring for the older person to join our team.
Ward 41 is a busy medical assessment unit with a commitment to multidisciplinary team working. We specialise in caring for patients with delirium, dementia and frailty.
You should be able to work using your own initiative and have an active interest in developing extending clinical skills i.e Venepuncture and TPR and BP.
Experience in medicine for the elderly is desirable. Good communication skills are essential.
Hours will be worked to suit the needs of the service; this will include rotation to night duty.
If successful in your application, you will be offered the opportunity to undertake an SVQ2 or SVQ3 (dependent on band) in Health and Social Care, approximately 9 months after taking up post. It is expected that you complete this qualification, which will be fully funded by NHS Fife. Your Line Manager will provide you with more information once you are in post.
