An exciting secondment opportunity has arisen for the post of Deputy Ward Manager on Irwell ward at Moorside Unit, Trafford.
This post places particular emphasis on patient centred care and therapeutic engagement, ensuring all aspects of direct patient care are delivered at the highest quality. A key element of this post will be to support and provide sound clinical interventions to service users and clinical leadership on a day-to-day, shift-to-shift basis for a group of staff on a designated clinical area. The post holder will work in collaboration with the Ward Manager to develop and transform the nursing care provision, ensuring that it supports and reflects service user mental health and physical needs, is culturally appropriate, and compliant with professional guidance.
Main duties of the job
The post holder will take charge of the shifts on a rotational basis, act as a primary nurse to service users and their carers, as well as being responsible for the establishment and maintenance of effective communication with all relevant personnel who contribute to the care of the service user both internal and external to the Trust.
The post holder will, in collaboration with the ward manager, ensure continuous clinical and professional development for ward staff through on the job coaching, mentoring, audit, regular supervision, and ward based training of less experienced staff.
The post holder will deputise for the ward manager as required and promote multi-disciplinary team working whilst leading predominantly on nursing issues and leadership.
