Community Staff Nurse Out of Hours
North Cheshire and Mersey NHS Foundation Trust (BCH) View all jobs
Posted 1 month(s) ago
Reference: 2313004
Job summary
Are you a registered nurse looking for a role in District Nursing. We are looking for an experienced and motivated individual who will be responsible for carrying out holistic and autonomous evidenced-based nursing care to patients under the care of the Warrington Out of Hours District Nursing service. You should be able to demonstrate ongoing professional development.
The post holder will provide a high standard of care, utilising clinical skills in the assessment, planning and implementation of pro-active care to a community population with nursing needs referred into the district nursing service. The post holder will work in close collaboration with other professionals/stakeholders within the Warrington footprint.
If you are looking for flexibility with your working hours to support your work life balance, all flexible working requests will be considered in line with the needs of the service.
Main duties of the job
The OOH role focuses on promoting patient safety, health and wellbeing through timely assessment and intervention in response to urgent and priority clinical needs. The postholder undertakes comprehensive assessments of Priority 1 callouts, identifies changing or deteriorating health needs, delivers appropriate nursing interventions and evaluates outcomes.

The postholder works collaboratively with the wider multidisciplinary team, patients, relatives, carers and relevant health and social care services to ensure safe and effective care.

Effective communication, sound clinical judgement and the ability to work independently are essential to maintaining patient safety and continuity of care across the OOH service.
