Band 5: £29,970 to £36,483 a year per annum  PERMANENT  GOOD SALARY 

As an Intermediate Care Unit with 38 beds, we bridge the gap between home and acute hospital services. Patients who are too unwell or incapacitated in the short term to stay at home but not requiring acute intervention get admitted to our unit to help them recover and 'return to baseline' function.

In addition patients who have had an 'acute' episode but are not yet ready to return home will come to us for a short period of rehabilitation to ensure they are safe to return to their home environment and their abilities are optimised.

We are a team of RGNs, ACP ,Healthcare assistants, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists and Rehabilitation support workers who aim to maximise our patients' potential to enable them to return home. When that is not possible, we work closely with our adult social care colleagues to plan best outcomes.

We are looking for an RGN who enjoys working as part of a friendly and supportive team. It is hard work but very rewarding - planning the patient pathway, enabling them to progress and supporting them through setbacks is what we do best.

Here at SCFT we are proud of the care we offer to all our patients. Our Trust inpatient units' care was rated 'Outstanding' in our most recent CQC inspection.

As this is a 24-hour service, internal rotation will be operating.

If you would like to pay us a visit to see what we do and how we do it, please call our Ward Manager Parvathy Bhuvanandran on X 2545
