Are your excellent communication and interpersonal skills accompanied with a high level of pro-activeness? Then you are exactly what we are looking for to join our newly energised Acute Medicine for the Elderly team. We value our workforce so investing in your continuous professional development is our priority. Supporting this means we align your clinical knowledge and practice to the competencies outlined in the Older Peoples Framework which is key to delivering high standards of care. We recognise that the wealth of knowledge, expertise and experience you bring with you will help shape a dynamic, effective and efficient service to older people, their carers and family members living in Tayside.
