ABOUT THE ROLE
Are you a qualified registered nurse with a current NMC pin?
Do you prefer to work nights?
Our care teams make a real difference every day and your
professionalism, kindness and compassion, will be at the core of
everything you do. Our Night Nurses are usually the most senior person
on site during night shifts and will take charge in the event of any
emergencies that arise as well as keeping wakeful watch on the security
and safety of our residents and the home in general.
Leading a team of carers, you will have a lead clinical responsibility,
providing advice and guidance where necessary, and ensuring that high
standards of nursing and personal care are met. You will deliver,
monitor, and re-evaluate care needs in partnership with each resident,
their key carers, family members and the wider team at the home, as well
as liaising effectively with GPs, hospitals and external agencies. The
role is incredibly rewarding, and you will regularly be presented with a
wide range of clinical experiences and opportunities to develop your
skills and knowledge.
If these shift / hours do not suit you, we can also offer hours on a
casual basis that give you flexibility and work life balance. Simply let
us know what you are looking for when you apply.
