Job description

The Mental Health Division of Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust comprises three directorates: Adult Mental Health, Mental Health Services for Older People, and Specialist Services. Over 2,800 dedicated staff provide vital healthcare services across various settings, from community to acute wards, covering a vast geographical area.

We are investing heavily in our staff, facilities, and patient care. As we move into this new chapter, we seek a strong, motivated, and compassionate workforce that embodies our core values of Honesty, Compassion, Trust, Respect, and Teamwork. There has never been a better time to join our growing team.

We offer exciting opportunities across different specialties and services, emphasizing career development and progression. We are committed to supporting our staff in reaching their full potential by providing the necessary skills and development opportunities.

The Integrated Specialist Services provide specialized NHS services for individuals whose needs cannot be met by mainstream services. We are seeking a Staff Nurse to join our Inpatient Assessment & Treatment Team with IDD.

The Orion Unit is an 8-bed inpatient service for adults with intellectual disabilities and complex mental health needs or challenging behaviors, whose needs cannot be addressed within the community. We offer tailored assessments and treatments, working flexibly within a multidisciplinary team, supporting individuals in times of crisis and distress, collaborating closely with community health and social care professionals.

An opportunity has arisen for an IDD Staff Nurse to work within the Inpatient Assessment & Treatment Team at the Orion Unit, Highbury Hospital, Bulwell, Nottingham.

#TeamNottsHC includes over 11,000 dedicated colleagues providing services in mental health, intellectual disability, community health, forensic, and offender healthcare across Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and South Yorkshire, from over 200 sites.

We are one of the largest mental health and community trusts in the East Midlands and a major employer in Nottinghamshire. Our services include national and regional centers like the National High Secure Deaf Service and the Nottingham Centre for Transgender Health.

We promote diversity and inclusion through various staff networks, including Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI), Green Champions, and others, fostering a culture of inclusivity.

The health and wellbeing of our colleagues are priorities, supported by in-house occupational health and counseling services, and a dedicated Health and Wellbeing team.

The Trust is committed to environmental sustainability, working towards achieving our net-zero carbon emissions goal with the help of our Energy and Environmental team.
