{"interviewQueryText":"What are some good interview questions in British English for the job description below?\n\n-------------------------------------------\n\nNurse Specialist with The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in 317 02 Royal Victoria Infirmary\n\n We are seeking an enthusiastic and dynamic nurse to join our existing Clinical Nurse Specialist Team at the National Renal Complement Therapeutics Centre (NRCTC). The post offers a fantastic opportunity to be involved in the national service for patients with a rare kidney disease known as atypical Haemolytic Uraemic Syndrome (aHUS) (including adults, children, and young people). Please note, it is not essential to have prior experience of general kidney disease management, for this role. Newcastle Hospitals was commissioned by NHS England to be a single-centre highly specialised service to diagnose and co-ordinate care for patients with suspected or confirmed aHUS. Patients across the country suspected to have aHUS are referred to the NRCTC for the highly specialist management and co-ordination of their care by our adult and paediatric Nephrologists, who are supported by the whole multi-disciplinary team. Some patients are on intravenous therapies to treat the disease, and you will be involved in the monitoring and support of this group. Our model of care will be changing, and some patients will be able to stop treatment for aHUS with an ongoing need for monitoring. You will support the management of patients withdrawing from these therapies - this group requiring ongoing active clinical and biochemical monitoring for signs of relapse, which will be centrally monitored and co-ordinated from the service in Newcastle. The role of the Band 6 Specialist Nurse will be to support the Band 7 nurse and nurse consultant to provide specialist nursing input, co-ordination of care, monitoring, education, and management of this patient group. There will be a requirement to develop professional relationships with other healthcare organisations and teams nationally, and a need to develop communication and networks for the management of these patients. The post holder will be responsible for maintaining good records and data collection for these patients. There will also be a requirement to offer a high level of support to patients, families and other healthcare professionals involved with this service, as aHUS is an ultra-rare disease. We are looking for someone who is passionate about service improvement, and who has an enthusiastic approach to providing the best nursing care for aHUS patients and their families. An understanding of the role of a Clinical Nurse Specialist is desirable, and you should have transferable skills relevant to this role. Effective communication and organisational skills are important because we operate on a shared care model, whereby patients' care is shared between the NRCTC and their local kidney team. This model will be nurse-led and you will work with senior nurse specialists, and the nurse consultant to plan and deliver the day to day clinical care within the withdrawal group of patients in the national aHUS service.
