- Recognise signs of infection, deterioration or complications and escalate concerns promptly to the appropriate clinician.
- Assist Consultants and the Plastics CNS during outpatient consultations, treatments and minor procedures.

- Respond appropriately to clinical emergencies and help maintain a safe, clean and well-prepared treatment environment.
- Support Healthcare Assistants, junior colleagues and student nurses with their clinical learning and development.
- Contribute to clinical audits, quality improvement and the development of evidence-based nursing practice within the department.
