We are looking for someone who has sound knowledge and experience of the patient co-hort, good leadership skills, a proactive approach to problem solving and the ability to respond quickly to challenges. The ward has 17 beds and is nurse led which will give you high levels of autonomy and satisfaction in delivering excellent patient care and increasing patient independence.
