Staff Nurse - Community Beds Rowley Regis
Job description
Are you newly qualified or experienced nurse with a passion for working with people in an adult social care or health setting?
Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust are working in partnership to provide reablement in a newly built integrated Social Care and Health Centre, opening in November, 2022. The Centre will be an 80 bedded reablement centre based on Harvest Road, Rowley Regis.
We are now recruiting to a variety of roles within both organizations, presenting exciting opportunities to work in a brand new, purpose-built service supporting individuals to regain or maximize their own independence.
The reablement approach supports working in partnership with people to retain or regain their skills and confidence so they can learn to manage after a period of illness or immobility, working collaboratively to build safe and effective plans of discharge.
Integration is our overarching principle with the aim of achieving improved care through better coordination of, and person-centred, services.
This is the perfect opportunity for you to work as part of our nursing workforce for the new centre, providing your nursing skills to support individuals to reach their full potential and return to a community setting.
You must be genuinely driven with a desire to make a real difference in people’s lives.
Successful candidates will be excellent communicators, good team players and passionate about empowering and supporting people to achieve goals.
Working Hours:
You will be required to work a mixture of early, late and night shifts. These will also include working weekends and bank holidays.
You must hold a current Nursing and Midwifery Council Qualification in Adult Nursing.
We are an integrated care organisation with an outstanding reputation for teaching, education, research and innovation. Our 6,600 staff are here for 530,000 local people when they need us.
City Hospital in Birmingham is home to the Birmingham and Midland Eye Centre, and our Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia Centre. It’s also the regional base for the National Poisons Information Service.
At Sandwell General Hospital in West Bromwich, you’ll find inpatient, paediatrics, most general surgery and our stroke specialist centre.
At the Trust, we also have significant academic departments in cardiology, rheumatology, ophthalmology and neurology.
We have intermediate care hubs at Rowley Regis and at Leasowes in Smethwick.
Our community teams throughout Sandwell provide integrated services for children in schools, GP practices and at home. They also offer both general and specialist home care for adults in hospices and nursing homes.
In 2023 we will open the brand new Midland Metropolitan University Hospital – the perfect demonstration of our vision for the future. And we are investing in far more than buildings.
We are dedicated to investing in you. It matters to us that you enjoy the training, support and opportunities you need to fulfil your total potential and build the career you really want.
To make that happen, we’ve trebled our training budget. We’ve developed new career path frameworks and new ways to recognise your achievements.
