Overview
Hopewood Hospital in Sherwood, Nottingham has 32 beds across 3 wards and is based on site with an education facility for inpatients, a CAMHS community base with specialist teams and both inpatient and community perinatal teams. Currently Hercules, Phoenix and Pegasus Ward have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Registered Mental Health Nurses or Registered Learning Disability Nurses to join our team.
Ward areas
* Hercules Ward – an 8 bedded PICU that works with young people experiencing severe and enduring mental health problems. We work closely with families and a full MDT to ensure positive outcomes for young people and we encourage staff to be fully involved in patients care and participate in both group and 1:1 work.
* Phoenix Ward – a busy 12 bedded general acute ward providing highly specialist services, 7 days a week, to young people aged 13 to 18 who are experiencing a range of mental health and emotional difficulties. We have a large MDT and opportunity to ensure a wide range of therapeutic intervention.
* Pegasus Ward – a specialist eating disorder ward. Family based treatment is integral to the treatment and recovery of young people with eating disorders and families and carers are encouraged to be fully involved in their care; there are therefore opportunities for staff to be involved in family work as well as individual & group work with the young people.
Role and induction
All new staff nurses will rotate between all wards as part of their induction. Our nurses have a key clinical role within a well established multidisciplinary team. You will need to demonstrate that you have experience of working with people with mental health problems and supporting carers/families in an acute environment. You should have a working knowledge of the management of safeguarding processes, and you should have excellent communication and leadership skills.
Qualifications and experience
* Registered Mental Health Nurse (RMN) or Registered Learning Disability Nurse (RNLD).
* Experience of working with people with mental health problems and supporting carers/families in an acute environment.
* Knowledge of safeguarding processes, with excellent communication and leadership skills.
Visa and sponsorship
Please note that this post does not meet the pay level required for a Skilled Worker visa. Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa can determine the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship against the relevant criteria here: https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa
