Deputy Sister/Charge Nurse - Winchester, United Kingdom - Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
Description
Job summary
This is a senior role within the Integrated Discharge Team based primarily at Winchester but with the requirement to travel to Andover and Basingstoke in order to provide adequate nursing cover.
The team works with the multi-disciplinary teams within HHFT as well as with partners from the community to identify appropriate ongoing care for some of our most vulnerable adult patients and to manage the processes which expedite safe and efficient person centred discharge. The person will have knowledge and understanding of discharge pathways with a real interest and ability to facilitate conversations with system partners, wards, clinicians about appropriate onward care settings. They must be a skilled communicator with the ability to explain complex arrangements to patients and families as well as perform a teaching role on the wards.
Main duties of the job
The role includes liaison, teaching and negotiating with other professionals inside and outside the Trust, as well as with patients and their families. We need someone with a calm and confident approach, used to having challenging conversations introducing difficult concepts, and also with a good knowledge and ability with computer systems. The ideal candidate is usually someone who has tenacity and resilience and enjoys solving puzzles, someone who can work independently but also as an integral part of the team.
About us
Our vision is to provide outstanding care for every patient. Patient care is at the heart of what we do at our three sites: Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester and Andover War Memorial Hospital. Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust provides medical and surgical services to a population of approximately 600,000 people across Hampshire and parts of West Berkshire.
Our cultural ambition is to have a culture that places people at the heart of all we do, where we all belong, and where learning, improvement and excellence thrive.
We provide specialist services to people across the UK and internationally. We are one of only two centres in the UK treating pseudomyxoma peritonei (a rare form of abdominal cancer) and we are leaders in the field of tertiary liver cancer and colorectal cancer.
The trust employs more than 9,000 staff and has a turnover of over £500 million a year. As a Foundation Trust, we are directly accountable to our members through the governors. The Council of Governors represent the interests of their constituencies and influence the future plans of the Foundation Trust.
