As an organisation and emergency department, we are pleased to be advertising a number of clinical and non-clinical roles as part of our ongoing new build and development of the urgent and emergency care services. We are currently in the final weeks of the £30 million investment and development of a brand new purpose-built Emergency Department. This comprises an 8 bedded resus area, Rapid Assessment Triage and ambulance handover area, 35 clinical rooms including a paediatric area, 2 triage rooms, and a dedicated area with 6 clinical rooms for the Urgent Care Service. The new build will provide the right environment to see and treat patients attending with an emergency or urgent complaint, ensuring they are seen in the right place by the right person whilst maintaining national emergency care standards.
Main duties of the job Whilst the new build offers state-of-the-art patient facilities, it has seen significant investment in staff facilities including a large staff rest area and changing facilities. The department also offers an extensive career development pathway and significant investment has been made to support the continued training and education of the ED/UCS team linked to each individual role, including RCN Level 1&2 competencies, NMTNG level 1&2, TILS, TNCC, EPALS, ALS, IRMER, and for autonomous practitioners access to educational courses as well as a comprehensive development and competency pathways.
As a result of the increased footprint of the new Emergency Department, there has been a comprehensive staffing review of the establishment which has enabled us to work to recommended RCN safe staffing numbers, supporting quality and safe nursing care to all our patients.
