Staff Nurse - Older Male Care (Mortimer)
Do you want to make a real difference to patient care?
We do, and we have, but we are looking to recruit more staff nurses to continue and contribute to making a real difference to our older male patients.
We are seeking trained staff nurses to join our journey of celebrating and embracing older care. It’s an exciting time for our 5 older care wards, which have recently been redesigned to be ‘dementia friendly’ following £600k funding from the Department Of Health.
We are also piloting a new older persons 'Enhanced Recovery Pathway' — one of the first Trusts to do this. This demonstrates our commitment to innovation, aligning with our Trust aims of Excellence, Ambition, and Innovation, aiming to improve patient care now and in the future.
Excellent patient care is at the heart of everything we do, and we believe our staff are central to achieving this. We offer tailored personal development opportunities and involvement in exciting new research.
If you are motivated, compassionate, and want to make a real difference to the care of our older patients, we want to hear from you. Join us on our journey.
