The "Staff Nurse Practitioner Development Post" at Darlington with County Durham & Darlington NHS Foundation Trust offers an innovative opportunity for registered nurses to gain experience in acute care while working with the Acute Medical Unit, Acute Intervention Team (AIT), and the Cardiac Arrest Prevention (CAP) Team. The role involves delivering safe patient care, facilitating effective communication among healthcare staff, patients, and families, and supporting the education and training of those involved in managing deteriorating patients.
