We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic nurse to complement our current team within the discharge lounge at the Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital (NSECH).
The successful candidate will have exemplary communication skills, will be highly motivated, and a dynamic qualified nurse. The discharge lounge comprises of 15 beds and 4 chair spaces and specializes in the ongoing journey of patients moving to different specialties within the organization and those transitioning to home or community-based care.
While nursing experience would be an advantage, full training will be provided, and so this could be an opportunity for a new registrant.
We work closely with all members of the Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) to provide a full holistic approach to patient care.
You will be expected to deliver a high standard of care to a range of patients from all specialties including medicine, surgery, and orthopaedics and provide them with all the necessary support and information for a safe hospital transition or discharge home.
Liaison with all members of the MDT is of vital importance to ensure a safe and seamless transition for patients, which is why effective communication skills are of the utmost importance.
High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us. We have one of the most extensive patient experience programmes of any trust in England.
Responsibilities:
1. To assess, plan, implement and evaluate nursing care working as a member of the ward team under the direction of the Ward Manager.
2. To be responsible for the organizing and coordination of nursing services in the ward/department in the absence of senior staff on a regular basis.
3. To exercise accountability as set out in the NMC Code of Professional Conduct.
4. To be responsible for all nursing care standards and to maintain high clinical standards.
