Job description

Peripatetic Registered Nurse

Keane Premier Healthcare | £23.00 per hour | 46 hours per week | Permanent

Shift Pattern: 8am–8pm and 8pm–8am
Location: Peripatetic – working across our six care homes in Cambuslang, Rutherglen, Mount Vernon and East Kilbride

Please Note: Due to restrictions on the number of Certificates of Sponsorship we can issue at present, candidates without an existing visa or right to work in the UK are unlikely to be suitable for the advertised post.

At Keane Premier Healthcare, we are passionate about providing exceptional, person-centred care to the people we support. We are looking for an experienced, compassionate and clinically confident Peripatetic Registered Nurse to work flexibly across our six care homes.

This is a permanent role providing flexible nursing cover across our services. You will not be permanently assigned to one care home; instead, you will work across our homes according to operational requirements, including covering vacancies, sickness, annual leave and other staffing requirements.

Given the varied nature of the role, you will need to be adaptable and clinically confident, with the ability to work effectively across different services, teams and routines while maintaining consistently high standards of nursing care.

You will lead shifts, make sound clinical decisions and work collaboratively with the people we support, their families, colleagues and healthcare professionals to achieve the best possible outcomes.

If you are committed to delivering outstanding care and enjoy the variety of working across different services and teams, we'd love to hear from you.

What do you get in return for your compassion and commitment?

At Keane, we believe in taking care of the people who care for others. Here's what we offer to support your wellbeing and development:

• Competitive rate of £23.00 per hour.
• Paid NMC PIN renewal.
• Early access to a portion of your earnings with Stream.
• Health Assured Employee Assistance Programme with 24/7 support through the Wisdom App, including health checks, wellbeing tools, legal advice and much more.
• Up to six free confidential counselling sessions by telephone, online or face to face.
• Bright Exchange discounts through the Wisdom App, giving access to exclusive offers across a wide range of retailers and services.
• Blue Light Card discounts.
• Free mortgage consultation with McCusker Mortgage Solutions.
• Comprehensive induction, paid shadowing and ongoing training to support your confidence and success from day one.
• 28 days' annual leave (pro rata).
• Genuine opportunities for career progression and continued professional development.

Benefits are non-contractual and may be amended or withdrawn at any time.

Main Responsibilities

• Work flexibly across Keane Premier Healthcare's six care homes according to operational and clinical requirements.
• Lead shifts and provide effective clinical leadership within the service in which you are working.
• Assess, plan, deliver and evaluate high-quality, person-centred nursing care.
• Safely administer medications and treatments in line with professional standards and Company policies.
• Monitor the health and wellbeing of the people we support, recognising signs of deterioration and taking appropriate clinical action.
• Complete clinical assessments, care planning, reviews and risk assessments tailored to individual needs.
• Work collaboratively with the people we support, their families, GPs, Advanced Nurse Practitioners, paramedics and other healthcare professionals to coordinate care.
• Maintain accurate care records, medication records and clinical documentation.
• Support, supervise and mentor care staff, providing clinical guidance and leadership.
• Promote safeguarding, infection prevention and safe clinical practice.
• Contribute to audits, quality improvement initiatives and inspection readiness.
• Familiarise yourself with and follow the local arrangements, care plans and procedures of each service in which you work.
• Ensure care is delivered in line with NMC standards, Health & Social Care Standards, Care Inspectorate requirements and Company policies.

What We're Looking For

• Current NMC registration with an active Nursing PIN.
• A minimum of one year's post-registration nursing experience.
• Previous care home nursing experience.
• Excellent clinical assessment, medication management and clinical decision-making skills.
• Experience assessing needs, developing person-centred care plans and reviewing outcomes.
• Strong communication, leadership and organisational skills.
• Confidence leading shifts and providing clinical guidance to care teams.
• Ability to adapt quickly and work effectively across different services, teams, routines and clinical needs.
• Flexibility to work both day and night shifts across our six care homes according to operational requirements.
• Ability to travel between our care homes in Cambuslang, Rutherglen, Mount Vernon and East Kilbride as required.
• A compassionate, professional and person-centred approach to care.
• A commitment to continuous professional development and maintaining high clinical standards.

Experience in dementia care, mentoring colleagues or undertaking additional clinical training would be advantageous but is not essential.

This role requires PVG Scheme membership (or willingness to obtain) and satisfactory references in line with Safer Recruitment guidance.
