Clinical Nurse Lead - Children's Bladder and Bowel Service
Job overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen to be at the forefront of our continued transformation journey within our Children's Community and Specialist Services here at LTHTR.
As the Clinical Nurse Lead for the Children’s Bladder and Bowel Service, you will be working within and leading the team, supporting children who require assessment, care planning, and intervention following referral into the service.
This is a rare opportunity to lead a nurse-led service where you can make a real difference and have a meaningful impact on how specialised care is delivered closer to home.
Main duties of the job
In having overall responsibility for the provision of excellent care with compassion for children and young people who are known to the service, and their families/carers upon referral, you will ensure that patients and their carers experience a high-quality, patient-centred service. This means ensuring care is accessible, effective, and delivered at a time and place according to clinical need.
Within this role, you will plan, deliver, and evaluate community nursing interventions, working in partnership with statutory and voluntary agencies.
You will also provide clinical leadership and line management to the Children’s Bladder and Bowel Service.
Working for our organisation
Being based at our Children's Community Setting brings a natural wealth of Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) working and liaison opportunities.
