An exciting opportunity for an experienced Band 5 Staff Nurse
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and compassionate experienced Band 5 Staff Nurse to join our Frailty Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) team. You will work within a highly skilled multidisciplinary service providing rapid, holistic assessment and person-centred care for older adults living with frailty, supporting timely treatment and safe discharge or transfer.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop specialist expertise in acute frailty, rapid assessment, clinical decision-making, medication management and complex discharge planning. Working closely with advanced practitioners, geriatricians, therapists, support staff and community colleagues, you will assess, plan, implement and evaluate individualised programmes of care, respond promptly to changes in patients’ needs and help maintain safe and efficient patient flow through Frailty SDEC.
We are looking for a motivated, adaptable registered nurse who can prioritise safely, work effectively both independently and as part of a team, and remain calm in a fast-paced clinical environment.
If you are passionate about improving the experience and outcomes of older adults living with frailty, this is a rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful difference as part of a collaborative and developing service. We welcome informal contact before application or interview, so please get in touch if you would like to learn more about the role.
