Responsibilities

You will supervise colleagues, manage shifts and ensure flawless handover summaries are completed to maintain continuity of care. Above all, you will keep residents at the core of everything you do. You will oversee a team to deliver an outstanding level of care and, in the Home Manager\'s absence, take responsibility for leading that team and running the home. You may help colleagues develop their performance, administer prescribed medicines, or prepare incident reports, with resident wellbeing in mind at all times.

You will advocate and deliver a person-centred approach to care for the people living in our care home and their families.
Safeguarding is everyone\'s responsibility. You should be able to recognise signs that may indicate abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if concerns arise. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You should also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
Qualifications and Skills
You will be a Registered Nurse with a valid PIN and understand your professional commitment to the standards of practice set by the NMC. You will have a passion to mentor and share your knowledge with colleagues, and provide support as a practice supervisor and assessor to students.
