An exciting opportunity has arisen for a qualified nurse to join our critical care team. Are you looking for a new challenge and a chance for more education?
We are a busy 12-bedded Critical Care unit providing patient centred care at Level 2 and Level 3. Worthing Critical Care provides a comfortable working environment for our staff and patient care is also enhanced by the use of a modern Information Technology operating a ‘paperless’ approach to patient care using our Clinical Information System.
We have a strong commitment to education and training with an on-site Educator. Our nursing team offers a progressive and supportive environment to develop individuals by utilising in-house resources as well as strong links with the University of Brighton and Surrey.
If you are looking for a new challenge with on-going education and development, would like to develop your career further and are interested in joining our friendly multi-skilled team we would like to hear from you.
We welcome applications from those who currently hold a UK NMC registration. If you currently hold an overseas nursing qualification and require sponsorship we are not currently direct hiring Internationally Qualified Nurses
The registered nurse will work within the critical care team planning, monitoring and evaluating care for level 2 and 3 patients and supporting their loved ones. They will follow a programme of competencies to gain knowledge and skills in this specialist area of nursing.
They will, as part of the wider team, support students who rotate into critical care.
Applicants must have NMC registration. Acute nursing experience in an NHS hospital ward setting is essential. Experience within a critical care area would be an advantage but not essential.
