RMN Staff Nurse NIGHT SHIFTS

Priory Hospital Dewsbury is a purpose built 32 bedded locked service, supporting two different service user groups:

Hartley Ward focuses upon the active rehabilitation of men with mental health issues. The emphasis is upon stabilising mental health, reducing risks and enhancing independent living skills, with a view to reintegration into the community.

Jubilee Ward supports men with Dementia and/or other neurodegenerative disorders, along with behaviours that challenge. We recognise that a number of our clients on Jubilee Ward require a longer term placement

This vacancy will be on the Jubilee Ward, however you will be asked to work across both wards as requirements of the service. An excellent opportunity for somebody looking to join an established team caring for two groups of patients with Neurodegenerative disorder and Mental illnesses requiring rehabilitation. You will work closely with other members of the MDT and be supported by the site Consultant Psychiatrist.

The post holder will provide day-to-day nursing input on the wards and will receive clinical supervision and support in professional development and CPD., Our nurses play a vital leadership role on the ward - coordinating our efforts, maintaining quality standards, responding creatively to new challenges and ensuring that our patients received the best possible care at all times. That brings variety and responsibility, of course, but it also offers you tremendous scope to use your initiative and develop your skills. You will work as an integral and respected member of the wider medical care team, and your ideas and experience will help us develop best practice and enhance the quality of our patient care.

As one of the UK's leading providers of behavioural care and specialist support services, Priory promise a challenging and fulfilling career with the support of a world class organisation willing to invest in your development.
