The Waiting List Support Service aims to offer a single point of contact for patients awaiting treatment. The service keeps patients regularly informed of waiting times and offers advice on how they can prepare for surgery and optimise their health whilst waiting.
The 3P's Waiting Well Policy launched by Welsh Government in September 2023 will ensure that support and information is easily accessible to those waiting and this role as a Registered Nurse is vital to support a meaningful offer and to ensure that we minimise the risk of harm to patients.

- Provide advice on self-management options whilst waiting
- Offer advice on what do to if their symptoms deteriorate
- Establish a systematic approach to measuring clinical risk and use this to inform waiting list prioritization
- Offer alternative treatment options if appropriate
- Incorporate review and checking of patient consent
The successful candidate will have significant clinical experience working within a multi-disciplinary team across different clinical specialties/conditions within the integrated care system.
