Clinical Nurse Specialist posts within Haematology
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Haematology clinical nurse specialist (CNS) team. Significant investment has allowed the team to be expanded to 4 full-time nurses; hence you will be joining a dynamic and supportive team of ACNS and CNS posts holders. These posts are outpatient based with roles including providing CNS support, nurse-led follow-up clinics, pre-assessment clinics, participation in MDT meetings, and practical procedures such as bone marrow biopsy.
Initial job plans will be appropriate to the current skill level with training available and encouraged to ensure you have the appropriate practical skills, competencies, and knowledge to undertake a CNS role.
The CNSs will work closely with the 2 ACNS post holders and alongside the consultant team.
The Haematology department provides care for patients with myeloid malignancies, e.g., AML, myelodysplasia; lymphoid malignancies, e.g., lymphomas and CLL, myeloma, and other malignancies. There is also general haematology work, e.g., immune cytopenias. The department also functions as a Haemophilia centre.
There will be the opportunity to learn about all aspects of Haematology. It is anticipated that the CNSs will work as a rotating, cross-covering team and likely develop subspecialist interests, e.g., in leukaemia, lymphoma, or bleeding disorders.
