Job description
We are looking for a Band 6 paediatric nurse to work within our 7F Children's wards at The Royal London Hospital.
7F specialise in Surgery, Trauma and Orthopaedics, providing a continuation of care service for children following surgery and long term chronic illness. Additionally, we are lucky enough to be one of a few centres offering spinal surgery to our patients, with our dedicated spinal team. We also have an enhanced monitoring bay that is working towards High Dependency status. This area looks after the sickest patients in the children's hospital, and acts as an intermediary between the wards and the Paediatric Critical Care Unit. Across 7F, emphasis is placed on multi-disciplinary working to ensure holistic care of the highest quality.
These areas are part of a versatile and dynamic service and the post holder will have excellent communication skills and be adaptable. They will be keen to learn and develop new skills and knowledge through the availability of a variety of training opportunities whilst facilitating the learning needs of others. We currently have access to a wide range of university modules including the HDU course, Evidence Based Orthopaedic Care as well as the paediatric in house trauma study days and APLS.
The post holder will be expected to take a role in supporting the ward manager to develop services, manage the day to day running of the ward and be involved in the management of a team of staff.
Barts Health has a busy and demanding children's service requiring staff to be flexible in their working. The post holder will be required to work within a challenging clinical environment and undertake shift work which will include nights, weekends and bank holidays.
Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, and one of Britain's leading healthcare providers.
The Barts Health group of NHS hospitals is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to becoming an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation. Having lifted ourselves out of special measures, we now have the impetus and breathing space to chart a fresh course in which we are continually striving to improve all our services for patients.
Our vision is to be a high-performing group of NHS hospitals, renowned for excellence and innovation, and providing safe and compassionate care to our patients in east London and beyond. That means being a provider of excellent patient safety, known for delivering consistently high standards of harm-free care and always caring for patients in the right place at the right time. It also means being an outstanding place to work, in which our WeCare values and behaviours are visible to all and guide us in how we work together.
We strive to live by our WeCare values and are committed to promoting inclusion, where every staff member has a sense of belonging. We value our differences and fully advocate, cultivate and support an inclusive working environment where staff treat one another with dignity and respect. We aim to create an equitable working environment where every individual can fulfil their potential.
