Join to apply for the Band 6 Heart Failure Nurse Specialist role at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust
An amazing opportunity has arisen in cardiology to support the nurse led heart failure service across BHRUT. This is a part time role of 22.5 hours a week as a band 6 nurse working alongside the nurse led heart failure team. You will have the opportunity of supporting the one stop heart failure diagnostic pathway by triaging GP referrals for patients of suspected heart failure. You will be supporting the in-patient pathway of patients with suspected heart failure as defined by NICE guidelines, providing MDT support in appropriate diagnosis and management of this patient group. The service also provides nurse led outpatient clinics to support symptom management, titration of medication per NICE guidelines and to help to empower and support our patients to self manage this long term condition. We work closely and are supported by the cardiology team and with our colleagues in the community heart failure services in Redbridge, Havering, Barking and Dagenham. The service also provides MDT support for end of life pathways working with our palliative care colleagues in hospital and the community. You should have RGN registration with cardiology nursing experience. We welcome any expression of interest for this role and look forward to welcoming a new member to our team.
The post holder will play a key role in the clinical team, supporting the lead nurse in the delivery of the service, and deputising for the lead nurse as required.
The post holder will carry a clinical workload.
To work towards developing standards of excellence in heart failure management across the local district within resources.
To ensure patients with heart failure get timely access to appropriate services and care/treatment in the most appropriate health care setting for the individual – primary or secondary care, meeting their physical, psychological and emotional needs.
To act as a specialist/expert resource or primary care colleagues, hospital, community and practice staff, to include professionals allied to medicine as appropriate.
To work closely with colleagues/multidisciplinary team across care boundaries to promote good working relationships and develop effective communications systems, which support and facilitate the delivery of shared packages of care.
To actively promote the initiative, contributing towards raising the profile within the wider local community.
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with. We’re no longer in special measures; we’ve opened two new theatres at our Elective Surgical Hub in King George Hospital (KGH); and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, was named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal in 2024.
We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 330,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.
Our patients are benefitting from our Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub in Hornchurch.
These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week and are providing an extra 94,000 scans a year.
The majority of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record that will be transformative for our staff and beneficial for our patients.
