Stand by, we'll show you...
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated and experienced registered nurse to join the Bristol Adult Acute Pain Management Service. The team delivers a 5-day service from 8am to 5pm on weekdays, offering advice on all aspects of acute pain and complex needs across the Trust.
You will be an integral part of our small, well established and supportive multidisciplinary team. Working in a fast paced inpatient setting, you will practice independently, provide specialist advice, education and support to staff, patients, their families and carers. There is a strong emphasis on regular patient contact and direct clinical care to ensure safety and efficacy of pain management techniques.
