    Nurse Team Leader - Stevenage, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom - East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust

    Default job background
    Description

    We are recruiting for a Nurse Team Leader - Pre-operative Assessment who shares our vision to be trusted to provide consistently outstanding care and exemplary service to our patients.

    The role of the Preoperative assessment practitioner is that of an advocate who identifies the patients' needs and risk factors that may affect their surgical experience.

    We are dedicated to the reduction of cancelled operations on the day of surgery through ensuring that patients are comprehensively optimised prior to their surgical procedure.

    We focus on improving the patient's experience before, during and after their admission by meeting their individual needs.

    The assessment, identification and subsequent management of risks related to surgery can also be directly related to the reduction of complication rates and mortality.

    Our Values are Include, Respect and Improve. It is important that you understand and refer to our values during your recruitment process and beyond

    Main duties of the job As part of our elective recovery initiative, we are keen to recruit dedicated, enthusiastic, and highly motivated Band 6 Pre-operative Assessment (POA) nurses.

    This exciting opportunity will see you making a real difference in our patients' lives and the standard of quality healthcare delivered.

    You must be a conscientious, caring individual, preferably with good POA experience but not essential as full training will be given.

    You will join and be part of a progressive, innovative team that keeps the patient at the heart of everything we do.

    After your POA training and induction, you will conduct Nurse-led clinics and autonomously manage your patient caseload. Therefore, you should have a flexible approach to working and a willingness to learn and develop continuously.

    In addition, strong customer care skills and effective communication with all stakeholders are fundamental.

    You will act as a role model and demonstrate a desire and willingness to contribute and actively be involved in further developing the POA service as well as the team, student nurses and ODPs who join us on clinical placements.

    In return, you will be working within a committed team of hardworking nurses with a high level of professionalism to holistically assess the individual care needs of patients to ensure they are managed safely and effectively throughout their surgical pathway. About us At East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general & specialist services we provide & our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible & innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.

    We run the following hospitals:
    • The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
    • New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
    • Hertford County, Hertford
    • Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood
    We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation our staff & patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.

    We understand that finding and starting a new job is an important life decision. If you need reasonable adjustments for a disability, or a life event, such as menopause - so that we can consider your application fairly & to get the best out of you during the selection process, please let us know.

    We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. Employees are entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns & we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made & considered formally, & will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.
