The team provides care, treatment, and support to service users with secondary mental health needs and this role will primarily support the nursing tasks and duties within the team for individuals with severe and enduring mental illness.
Responsibilities
The post holder will deliver outstanding nursing care that reflects the values of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) Code and AWP’s commitment to trauma-informed practice. This includes fostering a culture of kindness, respect, and inclusion in every interaction.
Your role will involve:
