We are delighted to be able to recruit for a Nursing Associate for Heather Ward at Airedale Centre for Mental Health.

The Nursing Associate has a breadth of knowledge and skills providing holistic and person-centred care and support for people of all ages and in a variety of settings. The Nursing Associate works independently under the leadership of Registered Nurses, providing nursing care and delivering all aspects of the nursing process. This includes undertaking a full range of routine care and treatment tasks as directed by the Registered Nurse in a range of health care settings with patients who are experiencing a range of physical and/or mental health issues.

The Nursing Associate will be equipped with the knowledge, understanding, skills, attitudes and behaviours relevant to employment as a Nursing Associate and will work to a nationally recognised code of conduct under the professional regulatory body of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC)., The role of the Registered Nursing Associate spans services who deliver care pre-conception to end of life.
