Stand by, we'll show you...
Jasmines Ward (Tolworth Hospital) is a 16 bedded unit (male & female) that offers mental health assessment, care and treatment for patients with dementia (including young onset) and/or severe and enduring mental health problems.
At Jasmine Ward, we provide outstanding holistic person-centred care for patients who cannot be safely supported in the community. Jasmines ward adopts a comprehensive and integrated approach to care, with a multidisciplinary team jointly managing all aspects of physical health, mental health, social care and risk/ safety management. Our goal is to provide a well-planned, collaborative, and holistic system of care. Jasmines ward embraces a Triangle of Care approach - involving patient's loved ones throughout their inpatient journey.
Jasmine's ward is a forward-thinking ward embracing digital solutions to support care provision (e.g. electronic medication management; electronic therapeutic observation and engagement) and is keen to progress quality improvement initiatives.
You need to have a genuine passion in working with elderly and frail patients and willingness to make a difference in their lives. You should be an individual who adopts a proactive approach to care. This role is pivotal in supporting the team in delivering care.
As a pivotal member of our team, you will contribute to the delivery of high standards of care, incorporating a recovery-oriented approach that encompasses all aspects of health needs and risk management. This includes working closely with relevant stakeholders (e.g. community mental health in aging services, social care, advocacy services, third sector organisations) to ensure a safe environment and providing support to individuals in meeting their psychological and physical health requirements.
At Jasmines ward we are keen to find candidates who are eager to develop their nursing skills. Alongside trust-wide training opportunities (E.g. preceptorship, supervision and annual appraisal), we can offer you bespoke local training (e.g. cognitive testing; catheterisation, phlebotomy, ECG, weekly simulation lead by the ward psychologist, wound management training, bespoke bitesize training and dementia training.
We provide career development opportunities that support staff to remain within the pathway (working with older adult), to develop as a clinician and from inpatient to community team. This could be as a specialist nurse in Memory Assessment Clinic or working within any of our challenging behaviour services.
