We have an opportunity for a Non-Medical Prescriber to join the Dementia Intensive Support Team in West Suffolk (DIST). This is an exciting time to work in older people's community services, and we are looking for someone who is passionate about working with older people to help DIST evolve and grow as part of wider service transformation. DIST works in a collaborative and supportive way, putting our service users at the heart of everything we do. We are looking for an NMP colleague who will bring their skills and expertise to the team in this MDT approach. Our dedicated team works intensively, for short periods, with people with Dementia in the community, visiting their homes, often in crisis, working to stabilize and enable people to continue living independently within their own homes. We care coordinate but support each other as a team, with weekly clinical team meetings and work collaboratively utilizing all of the different skills among the team.
Formulating treatment plans to provide a holistic service to meet mental health and physical health needs. Completing comprehensive assessments, including assessment and management of risk. Undertaking urgent medication reviews for those in crisis. Exploring alternatives to admission and advocating for intensive community-based/home treatment options. Providing advice, support, and guidance where required to the MDT. This role involves largely community visits within the urban/rural areas of West Suffolk. Supporting staff development and acting as a role model to the team, demonstrating the behaviors required in line with our Trust values. Participating in Quality and Safety Reviews within the Trust. Undertaking Line Management Supervision within the team for an agreed number of staff.
Here at NSFT, we pride ourselves on being a welcoming, talented, friendly, and supportive team who like nothing better than sharing experiences and learning from each other. In addition to ongoing training and development opportunities, we are committed to providing an environment in which you can thrive.
Why work for us? We have challenges as a Trust, but we have ambitious aspirations, are pushing ahead with exciting transformation work, and we need dedicated individuals to support us on our journey. We have strong, established nursing networks coupled with an exceptional leadership team who will ensure you are truly cared for and cared about. Why Norfolk and Suffolk? The people here are warm and welcoming; you'll never be far from the beautiful coastline or beautiful countryside. We're an hour and a half away from London, and our villages, towns, and cities are packed full of history, independent cafes, shops, and theatres. We have excellent shopping, dining options, top-ranking schools, and affordable housing prices too.
