Job description

Do you want a career with growth, progression, and empowerment? There has never been a more exciting time to join our Reproductive Health team as we expand our Gynaecology service. Exciting estate developments at the City Campus site mean Gynaecology has been given the opportunity to have a designated ward. This means:

• A 14-bedded female-only ward specifically for surgical elective Gynaecology and Gynaecology patients
• A good working environment for staff
• A highly skilled and talented multidisciplinary workforce, providing excellent guidance, support, and training
• Part of a service striving to implement a NUH Women’s Health Strategy

We’re looking for compassionate, ambitious, and forward-thinking people to join our team. With many opportunities for self-development and progression, we need people who want to learn and inspire others. We seek individuals who have a voice and want to drive positive change, love a challenge, and wish to be part of transformation.

Your skills and talents as a nurse will help ensure the women of Nottinghamshire receive the quality care they deserve. In return, you’ll find a rewarding career full of opportunities and growth.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Band 6 Deputy Sister/Deputy Charge Nurse.

We reserve the right to close the advert once the maximum number of applicants is reached.

As Deputy Ward Sister/Deputy Charge Nurse, you will be responsible for ensuring patient and user involvement in care. You will provide evidence that feedback is used to maintain standards and implement improvements affecting care.

You will be an effective leader and role model, providing direct clinical care and ensuring effective use of non-clinical time to support clinical and non-clinical governance, facilitating service modernisation.

You will manage staff, ensuring standards and quality of care, including the environment, are maintained and improved.

Ensure high-quality, evidence-based care is provided to all patients. Collaborate with the Matron and Ward Manager to identify issues affecting care quality, develop action plans, and ensure improvements are implemented.

Work with the multi-professional team to ensure a satisfactory patient experience, with ongoing evaluation and pathway redesign as needed. This role covers days, weekends, and nights.

With over 19,000 staff, NUH is one of the city's largest employers, supporting local health and wellbeing. We lead in research, education, and innovation.

Join our team at NUH. We value diversity and welcome new ideas to develop our team and deliver world-class healthcare. We offer extensive personal development opportunities to turn your job into a fulfilling career.
