An Exciting Opportunity in the Community Anticoagulation Service
Do you have an interest or previous experience working with patients who require anticoagulant medication? Or previous experience within Anticoagulation?
Whilst community nursing/anticoagulation experience is not required as we are committed to supporting your development during your induction and beyond. It is advantageous if you have experience in cardiology or renal nursing, although not essential.
About the Role
We are a specialized service working towards enhancing care provision for people on anticoagulant medication and our current role is around education, monitoring, dosing, and supporting patients whilst on anticoagulant treatment. We also offer VTE/in-reach support at New Cross, West Park, and Cannock Hospitals. As part of the service, we offer admission avoidance with the administration of essential medications within the community to prevent hospital attendance/admission for patients. There are exciting opportunities within the service to be involved with our self-testing project and switching project, which aims to maintain patient safety and offers a better experience for them. This is one of our quality initiatives.
