ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you a Registered Nurse who thrives on making a real and positive difference to the lives of older people?

Are you qualified with a current NMC pin?

Our care teams make a real difference every day and your professionalism, kindness and compassion, will be at the core of everything you do. At times, you may be the only nurse on the shift and will be responsible for leading and managing the care team to ensure that high standards of nursing and personal care are met, providing clinical leadership and guidance where necessary. You will deliver, monitor, and re-evaluate care needs in partnership with each resident, their key carers, family members and the wider team at the home, as well as liaising effectively with GPs, hospitals and external agencies.

The role is incredibly rewarding, and you will regularly be presented with a wide range of clinical experiences to develop your skills and opportunities for career development, all delivered in a nurturing, engaging, and rewarding environment.

If these shift / hours do not suit you, we can also offer hours on a casual basis that give you flexibility and work life balance.

Our focus is on delivering person-centred support in a warm, inclusive and homely setting.
