We welcome you to be a part of a great new service that is the only one of its kind. The Wolds are seeking a band 5 Registered Mental Health Nurse (RMHN) who is committed to providing high-quality care. We are offering a permanent role to work alongside our current nursing team and be part of the multidisciplinary team that really delivers. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a new initiative that is one of its kind in the country: REABLEMENT. Our vision and values are to work closely with our patient(s) using a 'hands-on approach' and supporting them to a successful discharge into the community where they can live an independent life as they envision. Don't delay, apply today!
ABOUT THE POST:
You will be the named nurse to your own small caseload, as well as working alongside your associate nurse. As part of the MDT, there is the expectation that all staff have an overview of the patient's recovery, needs, and pathway so we can support the patient(s) in achieving a safe and successful discharge.
Main duties of the job:
As a staff nurse on the Wolds, you will be allocated a caseload of named service users, as well as associate service users. There is also the expectation that you remain up to date on the care and treatment for all admitted onto the Wolds.
As a named nurse, you will be responsible for the duties this role entails, such as personalised care plans that are tailored to the individual, written with them and not for them, and relevant paperwork that helps aid recovery.
You will also have the opportunity to facilitate groups specific to our clients' needs. Medicine management, participation in MDTs, and working closely with our Social Inclusion Workers for the best outcome for our patients through their reablement pathway.
As the Wolds is a 24/7 service, we have to ensure safe staffing levels at all times. The working shifts within the rehabilitation service are long days with a rotation of nights.
LPFT has been nominated as a good place to work, and we have also been rated as Good by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) as well as an AIMS accredited service. There is the opportunity to advance your skills and knowledge through online learning, courses open to NHS staff, and self-learning.
You will also have monthly managerial as well as clinical supervision as we understand the importance of being able to reflect on our self-practice, and annual appraisals to identify the areas you wish to progress in to further your career.
