The work is mainly an out‑patient based service including care within routine clinics, emergency walk‑ins to the Haemophilia Centre and community visits. There will also be the need to provide care and support for in‑patients. The post would involve looking after paediatric patients and their families/carers with assistance on occasions with some adult patients. The person will primarily be working across sites at the Haemophilia centre in Basingstoke and a minimum of 3 days a week in Queen Alexandra Portsmouth. However, care for the child/young person and their family/carer with bleeding disorders is provided across the Southern Haemophilia Network (SHN) and nurses will be required to be part of the team that provides this service.
SHN is a clinical network providing care for patients with haemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders in Basingstoke, Portsmouth, Bournemouth, Poole and Salisbury. The SHN team has a network director, deputy director, lead nurse, lead physiotherapist and operational manager and provides comprehensive care close to the patients’ homes where possible. A weekly network MDT meeting includes review of all in‑patients and complex out‑patients, newly diagnosed patients for registration, management of any planned surgery or obstetric deliveries and a review of the psychosocial needs of patients who have been seen in clinics or at other times. The service offers all aspects of holistic comprehensive care as described in the National Service Specification B05/S/a with full‑time Consultants in Haemostasis & Thrombosis supported by very experienced, highly skilled specialist nurses, allied health professionals and healthcare scientists.
