As an active member of our Senior Management Team, you’ll help to keep us running smoothly – overseeing our clinical practices, and making sure that the necessary procedures and protocols are followed.
Responsible for all staff supervision in the establishment, you’ll personally manage the care team, with a particular focus on registered nurses. You’ll see to it that we’re making the best possible use of our resources and maintaining the highest standards of professional practice.
In this way, you’ll enable us to provide first-rate nursing to our patients - ensuring that each one has an individually-tailored, regularly updated care plan to meet their assessed needs.
Acting as a professional role model to other staff, you’ll participate in teaching programmes and assist with the induction of new staff. You’ll manage our keyworker system, as well as being a keyworker yourself, and will work closely with other managers to allocate staffing levels.
The home, an assessment and intervention unit, is itself a perfect example of helping people along their own particular care pathway. It provides an environment where someone can progress through the main service to the step-down Graded Rehabilitation Annexe, on the same site, and where they learn about and experience more independent living.
