Description

We are recruiting Point of Care Testing Technicians within our brand new Emergency Department.

We are a high performing department and in the top 10 Trusts in the country for Emergency Care.

It is a very busy and exciting time to join us as the COVID pandemic has caused us to transform service delivery at pace as well as plans to see a new Urgent & Emergency Care Centre.

During the pandemic, nurses have been working hard and we know how gruelling it's been. So, while you're looking after us; we make sure we're looking after you.

We have lots of support for your mental and physical wellbeing to support your work/life balance, including flexible working patterns to support you and the department.

Our Proud to CARE values are embedded right across the Trust and your happiness at work is at the heart of our appraisal system.

This message is from Kaye Stevenson, ED Matron, who will be your line manager:
I am really proud to lead such a great team.

I started as a newly qualified nurse in ED 15 years ago, I covered the Clinical Educator post for maternity leave.

I then got a Sisters post in ED and applied for a temporary Matron post nearly 7 years ago - here I still am I didn't have a great time during my first weeks and I remember well what it is like to be new to a department when the support isn't always available, this is why I put our staff at the heart of what I do, I am committed to supporting and developing staff alongside our educators and senior nursing team and have a fair, flexible approach.

I look to the team for ideas on change and what matters the most to them, we have regular polls and try our best to get together for big parties (as pandemics allow) There is no team quite like ours, it's a tough job but a second family and there is nowhere else I'd rather be.

Please see the Job Description document for further information about the role and job requirements. Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions.

We are committed to providing you with on-going training and development to ensure you thrive in your role here at the Trust, which will be individualised and supported by your Matron and in-house educators.

The key to our success is simple: our people. Their experience, knowledge, passion and ideas are our greatest resource. With your experience, energy and commitment to our public service, you'll be able to make a huge difference.
