Resuscitation Practice Development Manager
Are you an ITU or ED nurse, or an emergency ambulance paramedic, with leadership experience - ready to lead the team that shapes how a major NHS Trust prepares for the moments that matter most?
South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust is looking for a Resuscitation Practice Development Manager to help lead our new Resuscitation Practice Development Team, providing operational oversight of the resuscitation service across the Trust and ensuring our practice reflects national guidelines and Resuscitation Council (UK) standards.
You'll line-manage and develop our Resuscitation Practice Development Nurses/Paramedics, and design and evaluate education and training programmes that meet the needs of a large, diverse multidisciplinary workforce - working closely with our Learning & Development Team and operational directorates to make sure training translates into real improvements in patient safety.
You'll help shape resuscitation policy and audit frameworks, review incidents and turn learning into action. You'll remain a visible, credible clinical resource and oversee equipment assurance across the Trust, including community settings. You'll also deputise for the Lead for Resuscitation, giving you real exposure to strategic decision-making at Trust level.
