Are you an experienced Senior Nurse within an acute care setting looking for an opportunity to utilise your proven leadership skills alongside patient clinical assessment and acute care delivery? If so, this unique role is for you.

The Acute Care at Home service is a partnership between the University Hospital of North Midlands (UHNM), University Hospital of Derby and Burton (UHDB), Royal Wolverhampton Trust (RWT) and Midlands Partnership Foundation Trust (MPFT). The successful applicants will join an integrated, collaboratively focused team, employing proactive clinical practice and knowledge, to provide clinical assessment, monitoring and support, as part of our urgent care pathways.

As a Senior Staff Nurse working within the North Staffordshire team, you will play a key role in supporting hospital admission avoidance and supporting patients to leave hospital sooner than would otherwise be possible.

To support your professional development, there will be ample opportunities to enhance your knowledge, leadership and communication skills by contributing to specialty pathway development, SOPs and innovations that will shape the future in line with policy guidance.

As an integral part of the Virtual Ward Team, you will work closely with the Matrons and band 7s holding responsibility for the clinical management of a designated group of patients on the Virtual Ward. Using your physical assessment skills, you will carry out first visit clinical assessments including the development, implementation and evaluation of consultant led programmes of care, always maintaining quality and safety standards.

You will also hold delegated responsibility for the coordination of the day to day running of the ward, working in collaboration with the Band 7 Nurse Practitioner processing new referrals and maintaining oversight of all patients and staff carrying out clinical visits. You will have proven leadership skills and be a professional role model to others, taking an active role in leading on quality improvement innovations and participating in the development of others.
