We are looking for an enthusiastic individual whose key role will be to plan and deliver an innovative programme of education working towards the trust wide implementation of a new electronic system.

The new suite of electronic solutions will include physiological observations, assessments and digital escalation of deteriorating patients to the senior teams.

We are seeking an individual who has proven teaching skills, is willing to work alongside healthcare staff in the clinical areas and has the ability to develop practice.
