About the role and our team
Are you a committed, motivated and hardworking Registered Nurse? Join our team on Ward 6, Acute Medical Ward at Noble’s Hospital!
You will be joining our positive, friendly team where improving our service is a key part of our culture. We are passionate about ensuring we meet high standards and that Patients come first.
As a member of a multidisciplinary team, you will have responsibility for the nursing assessment of patient care needs and the development, implementation and evaluation of programmes of care to ensure delivery of a high standard of nursing care.
In the absence of the Sister/Charge Nurse or Deputy you will effectively and efficiently manage the resources available to care for patients on the shift. You will also supervise junior Registered Nurses, student nurses and Health Care Assistants, and act as a source of advice to ensure they meet their Learning objectives.
What can this role offer me?
By joining us you’ll be stepping away from NHS pressures and demands, as the Island’s healthcare system is similar but separate to the UK NHS.
This is a great opportunity to develop your clinical skills and you will have access to excellent development facilities and support, including our on-site education & training centre Keyll Darree.
