Job Description
Regional Team Leader - Community Adult

OPPORTUNITY
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a suitably qualified and experienced RN Adult to join our Community Nursing Team. My client provides quality care to meet the needs of their service users, who have a wide range of clinical conditions. Many of those cared for by our team have very complex physical, social and/or mental health challenges.
The role, whilst challenging is extremely rewarding and you will be supported by an established team whose ethos is based upon quality and excellence in care.
You will be responsible for the day to day management of a caseload of community service users who are directly cared for by our agency nurses and carers, and assist in establishing new care packages in conjunction with all relevant stakeholders.
The role incorporates initial assessment for care, care planning, risk assessment, training, supervision, audit and evaluation. You will ensure that the standard of service delivery for all patients is in line with national standards, regulatory requirements and organisational policies. Additionally you will be required to represent the organisation at multi-agency meetings promoting a professional image at all times.
The successful candidate will be an RN Adult, with a minimum of 5 years post registration experience, some of this experience preferably gained in an ITU setting. A mentorship/teaching qualification would be desirable as would some community experience.
The caseload will be based in the Gloucestershire/Herefordshire/Worcestershire region; however occasional travel further afield will also be required to provide cover for colleagues, along with geographical fluctuations in demand. You will also be required to attend HQ, based just outside of Bristol.
Duties will include
• Holistic Assessments / Care Planning
