Description du poste

In NHS Forth Valley we know the radical and transformational difference staff make to the lives of their patients. This is also true for our Prison Healthcare Teams, we have three National prisons in our Health Board area; HMP YOI Stirling, HMP YOI Polmont and HMP Glenochil. We have developed our NHS FV Prison Healthcare Teams to be truly multi-disciplinary and we will always strive to maintain this skill mix for our prison population. In NHS Forth Valley we passionately believe in joined-up, holistic care across the whole patient journey. We have a dynamic workforce and due to the relatively small size and adaptability of our health board our three prison healthcare teams can drive through positive changes for Primary Care, Mental Health, Substance Use & Recovery and Learning Disabilities in partnership with our Scottish Prison Service colleagues and others.

We are in an exciting place with regards to the new Women’s National Facility, which opened in June 2023. A new therapeutic model has been developed and lead by Scottish Government. HMP YOI Polmont is also undergoing change in line with recommendations regarding mental health, primary care, Youth Justice and their population changes. Our prison healthcare has always been at the forefront of strong partnership working with a ‘can do’ attitude.

This post is an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated and experienced registered nurse to undertake a significant leadership role within the Healthcare Teams in our three Forth Valley prisons.

The post demands significant operational and professional leadership abilities in taking forward the contribution of Prison Healthcare in a collaborative, engaging and patient focused service delivery model and will be required to work in partnership with a range of internal NHS partners as well as partners from the public, third and independent sectors.

From day one we help all new staff in Forth Valley embark on a journey to develop into the best they can be. We hope and expect that those we employ are keen to develop themselves, their team and their service by teaching, training, always improving and working towards patient safety and quality service improvement.
