    Description

    An exciting opportunity has arisen for Band 6 Deputy Sister/Charge nurse nurses to join the team in the ever developing Same Day Emergency Care service for a 12 month fixed term.


    SDEC has evolved from the ambulatory care service, its main aim is to reduce hospital admissions and improve patient safety and satisfaction.


    SDEC sees a wide range of patients from UTC, A& E and GP's with a wide range of medical and surgical conditions, we aim to streamline the patients journey by delivering assessment, diagnosis and a treatment plan in the same day.

    Due to the nature of the post-extended skills such as IV additives, IV cannulation, Phlebotomy, ECG's are desirable.

    5hr shifts over a 7 day week. Shifts currently run to 2200.

    Our Trust is situated in the beautiful county of Lincolnshire and is one of the biggest acute hospital trusts in England, serving a population of more than 700,000 people.

    We provide acute and specialist services to people in Lincolnshire and neighbouring counties.

    Our Board have recently agreed a new vision statement - Outstanding Care Personally Delivered - stating their ambition for our Trust to be among the best.


    We also have a five year Integrated Improvement Plan setting out how we will achieve our strategic objectives, for patients, services, people and partners, the last recognising that our future success depends on our ability to ensure the Lincolnshire healthcare system is successful in achieving its ambition to help people live healthier lives and provide care closer to where people live.

    Our latest CQC report increased our ratings for being effective and well-led from 'Requires Improvement' to 'Good'.

    This is in recognition of the huge amount of work that our amazing staff have done to improve the quality of care for our patients in recent years.
