Band 6 Sister/ Charge Nurse- Specialist Gynaecology
Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust
We are looking for a dynamic and proactive nurse, experienced in pre-assessment, to join our Specialist Gynaecology team. This newly created post will support junior members of the nursing team, provide sound clinical guidance for pre-assessment patients, and work towards improvements in our team to streamline how we provide our services. You will be mainly based in King George Hospital, working alongside the Gynaecology Outpatient team. This is an exciting opportunity for a promotion in the gynaecology outpatient team at Barking Havering Redbridge University Trust (Queens and King George Hospitals) as a band 6 Registered Nurse. You will work alongside other clinical colleagues to support the facilitation of high-quality care and collaborate with the consultants and other clinicians within the Gynaecology outpatients department. Providing nursing services, you will offer holistic, patient-centered, and sensitive care to women who are being investigated or treated for gynaecological problems. You will be required to provide leadership and management duties to the nursing teams. You will join a supportive, forward-thinking, and innovative team committed to improving services and supporting patients throughout their gynaecological journey.
Main Duties of the Job
To be responsible for the individualised care of clients on their elective surgical pathway.
To provide and maintain a high standard of nursing practice whilst coordinating and liaising with other staff, in line with Trust and CQC standards.
To assist with support and supervision of students and junior members of the team.
About Us We're an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we're no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we're proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff - who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve, and the majority are from black, Asian, and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes, and we're proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen's Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London - more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state-of-the-art theatres at KGH, and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George's Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We're looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It'll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
