We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Registered Adult Nurse to join the Northumbria Trustwide Specialist Diabetes and Endocrine service. You will have post-registration experience in a clinical setting either in a hospital or the community with significant relevant nursing experience.
This post will be based at North Tyneside General Hospital and will be part of the wider specialist nursing team, but the post holder may be required to work at other sites within the Trust. A full driving license is essential and you must be able to meet the travel requirements of this post.
A robust Trust induction programme and continuous Diabetes Specialist Nurse support and training will be provided.
Please note we reserve the right to close this vacancy prior to the closing date once the required number of suitable applications have been received.
Main duties of the job Northumbria diabetes service has established principles of multidisciplinary team working. A core part of the specialist service work is the delivery of structured teaching and training courses to both health care professionals and people with diabetes and endocrine conditions, and supporting and mentoring student nurses during their placement in the service.
As a member of the trustwide diabetes and endocrine nursing team, post holders will take responsibility for the provision of expert diabetes and endocrine nursing care and supervising student nurses. As an autonomous practitioner, you must be able to work effectively as part of a team and independently using a high level of interpersonal skills.
You will work across specialist, secondary and primary care services, providing complex case management and supporting people with diabetes in the community, and act as a resource to community teams. As specialist nurses, you will monitor and deliver ongoing support to people with new diagnoses and initiate patient treatment plans both in the community and hospital settings, whilst also contributing expertise in the multidisciplinary specialist clinics.
About us We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck, and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, covering one of the largest geographical areas of any NHS trust in the country. Leading in innovation and quality - opening a state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. Do you want to work in one of the best performing NHS organisations in England? Work in an organisation that supports its staff and focuses on staff experience as much as it does the experience of its patients? You can live and breathe in an area that has the cleanest air, cost-effective living, great nightlife, some of the best schools with a wealth of history available on your doorstep. Sound too good to be true? Well, it isn't; this is what you get when you work for Northumbria Healthcare, this is the Northumbria Way!
