You will be expected to carry out all relevant forms of care in partnership with patients, carers and other professionals and in line with agreed standards and clinical policies. Taking charge of the ward and the supervision and teaching of junior staff, both qualified and unqualified will be an important aspect of the role as will be the mentoring of nurses undergoing basic or post-basic training. You will be expected to carry out a range of duties to maintain a safe ward environment. You will be expected to manage difficult clinical situations and will play an important role in maintaining the safety of the environment. The ability to operate as a team player is an essential component to this role.
