You will deputise as a deputy ward manager on behalf of the ward manager to ensure consistent and safe care with compassion is delivered at all times to our patients whilst leading our amazing nursing and wider MDT teams.
As the shift leader on GAU you will take the lead in triaging the incoming referrals for assessment and supporting the other nurses on duty, in a department that can see around emergency attendances per day, with the aim to avoid admission to hospital.
Whilst on the ward you will work as the shift leader, coordinating the ward activity and supporting our team to deliver outstanding patient care.
A visit to the department is highly recommended to understand this fast paced and dynamic environment.

You'll have access to varied development opportunities, learn new skills, meet fab people & do things you'd never have done. You'll learn about working in a hospital, interacting with people from all different roles to build skills & enhance your career path.
You'll make an impact, be challenged to think differently, be bold & help innovate to keep improving things. Everything we do centres around patient care which means your role is pivotal and something really to be proud of.
Detailed job description and main responsibilities
