Job Summary

As a Registered Nurse, with a valid NMC PIN, you will be responsible for leading a team to ensure the delivery of excellent standards of care to our residents who have wide-ranging and complex needs including dementia. You will be a key part of a Multi Disciplinary Team including Advanced Nurse Practitioner, Speech & Language Therapist, Physiotherapist, Podiatrist, care staff, local GPs and other NHS healthcare professionals.

You will administer medication, review and evaluate electronic care plans and provide clinical guidance to the care team whilst delivering best practice continually. You will take responsibility for the well being of our residents, making sure their physical, emotional and social needs are met. You will develop a real connection with them and their families, treating them with the kindness, dignity and respect that they deserve. You will be accountable for making sure policies and Care Inspectorate standards are met.

You will have a kind, warm and caring nature, be patient and understanding and be able to work well as part of a team but also use your own initiative to lead the team in the absence of the House Manager. You’ll regularly communicate with residents, their families and staff so strong communication skills (both verbal and written) are a must.
