Senior Nurse - RMN

Overview

Pendlebury House is part of Turning-Point, a leading Health and Social Care organisation and a Registered Charity. We are located in a community setting in Swinton, Salford. Pendlebury House is an independent hospital offering packages of rehabilitation to informal and detained patients under the Mental Health Act (MHA). We provide treatment and care to patients with severe and enduring mental health needs and work to support their recovery goals, aiming to help them regain daily living skills and coping strategies to live more independently in the community.

We are now looking for a committed, experienced and enthusiastic Senior Nurse to join our team. There is a robust multidisciplinary team in place including Nurses, support staff, OT aide and Art Therapist.

Playing a key role in the multi-disciplinary team, you will liaise regularly with the Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) and lead on evidence-based frameworks and treatments, including adherence to NICE guidance. For the suitably qualified and experienced individual, the professional challenges will be rewarding and varied.

Reporting to the Clinical Lead, you will key-work individuals and develop care packages and risk management plans with an emphasis on discharge planning. You will ensure a recovery-focused pathway is embedded in the daily routine. Working closely with the Clinical Lead you will ensure all aspects of Clinical Governance are adhered to, ensuring the consistent provision of high quality, person-centred care in a recovery-focused independent rehabilitation hospital.

On a day-to-day basis you will lead the shift and supervise, guide and mentor staff, engage in audits including Clinical Audits, Health and Safety and Service User involvement, and participate regularly in MDT reviews.

You will be required to deputise in the Clinical Lead's absence and take part in an on-call system (providing out-of-hours phone advice for the service).

You will have strong knowledge and skill in working with a patient group suffering from severe and enduring mental health problems, including dual-diagnosis, and a solid knowledge of the Mental Health Act.

Excellent time management, communication and organisational skills are essential, as well as good IT knowledge. You will act as a professional role model, receive supervision from the Clinical Lead, take part in clinical supervision and offer supervision and appraisal to a small number of Pendlebury House staff.

You will be required to work 37 hours per week and take part in shift work and night duty on a rotational basis.

As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer. We operate on a not-for-profit basis and reinvest every penny back into our services and people. We are committed to change for the better and continuously strive to improve the lives of the people we support.

We offer a total rewards package, including ways to make your money go further, recognition and career development opportunities. We provide 33 days of paid holiday per year, increasing with service up to 35 days, with the option to buy additional holidays.
