About The Role
ADD TO LIFE. EVERY LIFE
Where making a difference changes lives
Secure environments are one of the most challenging, yet rewarding places for healthcare professionals to work. If you’re looking for a role where you can develop your existing nursing skills and learn something new every day in an environment that never stands still, then this could be the opportunity for you.
The Release and Transfer team plays an integral part in the support provided in our patient journey. As a Release and Transfer nurse you will use your expert clinical skills and demonstrate judgement in assessing and managing wide ranging and complex patient problems. You will provide care and planning for adult male prisoners from the point of reception until the day of release or transfer to another establishment. You will be expected to work collaboratively with the patient and any other agencies to support a safe transition back into the community/ other establishment. You will conduct a holistic patient assessment and manage the assessment of health needs, planning, delivery and evaluation of care for the prison population, including clinical risk assessment.
