Job Opportunity for Aspiring Nurse Leader
Are you an aspiring nurse leader, looking for a new development opportunity, with a passion for improving the experience of women, their families and of course our healthcare staff? If so, this opportunity could be for you.
We have an exciting development opportunity available to cover maternity leave for a nurse looking for their next clinical leadership position. Working in collaboration with the gynaecology ward manager, you will lead our gynaecology and early pregnancy assessment service at the Royal Preston Hospital. The unit is an emergency service operating in a model similar to that of a same day emergency care service for patients with urgent and emergency gynaecological condition or early pregnancy related concern. The unit has had its busiest year to date, with 10,000 attendances and over 1,000 recorded early pregnancy losses.
Role Responsibilities
This post is a critical role to our senior nursing leadership team, required to champion the care needs of women, their partners and of course our workforce. You will champion high quality standards of care through continuous improvement to continue to drive innovation and change.
You will work closely with the gynae ward manager. The Ward accommodates a diverse mixture of surgical and emergency patients within the 18 bedded area, offering a specialist service for Gynaecology Oncology, Urogynaecology and Endometriosis patients alongside our early pregnancy patients, caring for those experiencing early pregnancy loss and miscarriage.
