Reference: 2365431
Job summary
Elizabeth Casson House (ECH) is an 8-bed female Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit, and we're looking for a compassionate and confident Band 6 Nurse to join our experienced and supportive team. Our staff bring strong clinical skills, good judgement and a genuine commitment to providing safe, trauma-informed care to women during periods of crisis. You will also have the opportunity to develop knowledge in women's mental health and understanding the gender specific factors that influence presentation, risk and recovery.
You will be part of a team that values openness, reflection and shared learning. Staff wellbeing is really important to us! We work closely together, support each other day-to-day, and make sure people feel appreciated and equipped to do their best work.
You'll have opportunities to develop your leadership skills, contribute to service development and build confidence in areas such as de-escalation, relational security and culturally informed practice. We're committed to developing both our staff and our practice, and to continually improving the experience we offer to the women in our care.
ECH is a bright, calm and therapeutic environment. We are one of the few wards with a dedicated sensory room! A space to support emotional regulation, reduce distress and promote wellbeing.
If you're looking to join a welcoming, skilled team who are passionate about delivering excellent care and supporting one another, we'd be very happy to hear from you.

You will support staff to recognise and respond to rising levels of distress, using relational approaches and de-escalation skills to maintain a calm and therapeutic environment.
The role includes participation in the Duty Nurse rota, offering support and guidance to other wards across the Callington Road Hospital site outside of core hours. This provides valuable experience in site-wide coordination and leadership.
You will be an experienced RMN or RNLD with a strong commitment to clinical excellence, emotional resilience and service development. Professional growth is important to us, and you will be supported to take responsibility for your own learning through training, supervision, reflective practice and involvement in ward-based quality improvement projects. Rotational posts can be considered for those wishing to broaden their experience.
ECH is based within Callington Road Hospital, which hosts a range of mental health units. Wards work closely together and support one another when needed, creating a collaborative and responsive environment.

We aim to provideHigh Quality, Compassionate Careeverywhere, every day. This means our services will be safe, clinically effective and provide a positive all round experience for our patients, families and carers. And we believe passionately in treating everyone with kindness, respect and empathy.
Key to this is providing a supportive and safe environment for our 4,000 staff where we all feel welcome and able to do the best we can for those we support.

Dep Dir of Nursing,Clinical Capital Projects&W/force Transformation-8D
United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust View all jobs
Posted 9 day(s) ago
Reference: 2365414
Job summary
Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group is entering an ambitious period of clinical, estate and service transformation.
Across Lincolnshire, we are developing new models of care that bring services closer to people's homes, strengthen neighbourhood working and create more integrated community services. At the same time, we are transforming our acute hospital estate and progressing a broader portfolio of capital developments, refurbishments, service relocations and infrastructure improvements across the Group.
We are looking for an exceptional senior nurse to join us asDeputy Director of Nursing - Clinical Capital Projects and Workforce Transformationand provide senior clinical leadership across this wider Estates and Capital portfolio.
This is a unique opportunity to influence how our buildings, workforce and models of care develop together.
The postholder will act as the senior clinical bridge between Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professionals, Care Groups, operational services and our Estates and Capital teams.
You will ensure that clinical requirements are embedded not only within major new-build schemes, but across the broader capital portfolio.
Main duties of the job
A major focus of the role will be clinical workforce transformation.
You will work alongside Care Groups to ensure that investment in the estate is matched by a clear future operating model and workforce transformation plan. This means making sure we do not simply move existing ways of working into new buildings, but use capital investment as an opportunity to redesign pathways, roles, skill mix, technology and multidisciplinary working.
You will also ensure that workforce and clinical requirements are considered early enough to influence estate and capital planning, rather than being addressed once designs have already been developed.
You will contribute to the strategic development of the Group's Estates and Capital portfolio, helping to ensure investment decisions are informed by:
- future clinical strategy;
- population and patient need;
- workforce sustainability;
- neighbourhood models of care;
- acute service transformation;
- patient safety and quality;
- clinical adjacencies and patient flow;
- digital transformation;
- workforce productivity;
- accessibility and health inequalities; and
- long-term service sustainability.
You will provide a strong clinical voice into estate prioritisation and capital planning, helping the organisation understand not onlywhat we need to build, buthow services will operate within it and what workforce will be required to make it successful.
About us
At LCHG, our ambition is to create a more integrated model of care across Lincolnshire.
Our emerging neighbourhood approach will support more people to receive coordinated care closer to home, while our acute hospitals continue to evolve to provide high-quality, efficient and sustainable specialist and hospital-based care.
Our estate must support that ambition.
That means developing environments which enable:
- integrated neighbourhood teams;

If you want an exciting and rewarding role where you can grow others, lead with care and create system-wide impact, this is where your next step should be.
Main duties of the job
You care deeply about young people`s mental health, and you`re someone who people turn to for support, direction and reassurance and you know how to hold that space with care and confidence.

- A solid grasp of safeguarding and risk management, and a calm, measured way of responding
- A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle
You might also bring a Postgraduate Certificate in Supervision, training in low-intensity CBT, or experience working in a skill-mixed team but we`re more interested in the way you think, lead and show up for others than in ticking every box.
