An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Staff Nurse to join our Childrens Community Nursing Service. Our service includes the administration of IV antibiotics and we have new permanent and temporary positions, both full-time and part-time, within our Childrens Community Nursing at home team. Our service provides clinical interventions to children and young people enabling them to remain at home. We are a 7 day a week service all year round and our core business hours are between 8.30 and 17:00. We support applications for flexible working when we can. Candidates must be a paediatric registered nurse or a registered nurse with additional paediatric qualifications/experience. We welcome newly qualified nurse applicants. You will receive a full preceptorship training package until you are competent and confident to work alone. The role requires travel across the city so a car owner with business insurance will be essential.
Main duties of the job
We are looking for caring individuals who are resilient, proactive and motivated to work with a specialist team of professionals. You will be responsible for providing clinical care to children and young people. The workload is interesting and varied including but not limited to:
* Undertaking nursing assessments
* Central line cares
* Administering chemotherapy and intravenous antibiotics
* Providing wound care
* Supporting with enteral feeding
Candidates are to have excellent communication skills, be innovative and good problem solvers, work autonomously, and be able to prioritise and organise care with their team. We use a cross service model of working so you may have the opportunity to spend time and work with our other clinical teams which on occasions you may be asked to support.
