NHS Fife Internal applicants only - you must be currently employed by NHS Fife to be eligible to apply for this post.
An exciting opportunity has arisen at the National Treatment Centre Ward, for a self motivated and enthusiastic healthcare support worker, to join our multi-disciplinary team.
The National Treatment Centre Ward provides pre and post operative care to patients having elective orthopaedic surgery. The inpatient ward is a 33 bedded unit, with an adjoining admissions area. The National Treatment Centre is always trying to strive for clinical excellence. Hence, the service encourages and embraces change to service delivery, to promote high quality, evidence based care. The ward is implementing the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) approach, to optimise the rehabilitation process.
The National Treatment Centre ward is looking for candidates that have excellent communication skills, are adaptable to change and works well in a team and as an individual. They must have the drive and determination to deliver high quality care and have a keen interest in orthopaedic nursing. It would be beneficial to have previous orthopaedic knowledge and experience but this is not essential, as an induction will be provided for the successful candidate.
If successful, you will be joining a hardworking, friendly team, which values and supports learning and development. The National Treatment Centre has great learning opportunities and experiences, to develop skills and knowledge in elective orthopaedics, whilst in a supportive clinical environment.
This post will include rotation between shifts, which include dayshift and nightshift and full time or part time hours will be considered.
