An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Band 7 nurse or Band 6 nurse looking to advance your career.
About the Role
As the lead nurse for level 1 critical care, you will work alongside the paediatric critical care consultant, paediatric matron and senior staff. This role requires that you have not only significant experience in level 1 paediatric critical care but also the leadership and management skills to ensure any guidelines or policies required to support the paediatric critical care service are developed and implemented across all paediatric areas.
Whilst this post is based within the paediatric unit the successful applicant will be required to work very closely with the paediatric emergency department team.
We are seeking an individual who is proactive, innovative, and able to work collaboratively and independently to develop a co-ordinated and responsive service for our patients.
Although this role generally requires a weekday work pattern, there will be a need for the successful applicant to work flexibly clinically and to support practice.
