Job summary
This is an exciting opportunity to work in a fast paced and dynamic team, within the Southeast Division of Hampshire and IOW Trust. We have the opportunity for a 37.5-hour position for an Urgent Community Response Nurse, contributing to the prevention of hospital admissions under a strong and robust frailty model.
We all know hospital is not the best place for a crisis and as a UCR Nurse, you can help to ensure patients are kept safe and looked after in their own home on our very own virtual ward. You will be responsible for their assessment of health needs, carrying out clinical review and ensuring they are safely managed in the community.
If you have existing nursing skills which you feel are not used to their full potential, and you feel your job is repetitive with the same tasks every day, look further at this role, no two days are the same, you get to use your true autonomy and advanced clinical skills, work collaboratively with HCP partners, and this role provides a true variation of demand, it will make you utilise skills you maybe don't get to use and expand your knowledge and skills base. Every day you will look forward to coming to work, knowing you are preventing a hospital admission and supporting someone to remain at home.
Experience in community care is desirable, however full training can be provided, and ongoing post Reg training is available including the physical assessment course, diagnostics and independent nurse prescribing.
Main duties of the job
Working within professional guidelines and accountability, the post-holder will have responsibility for the management of a defined community caseload (via Nursing, Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy interventions) for a group of GP Practices as part of the Integrated Care Team.
The post holder will have responsibility for managing co-ordinating and delegating work ensuring referrals are dealt with according to clinical need, holistic assessments and care plans are recorded in line with Trust and Professional record keeping standards and clinical care at all times meets acceptable standards of patient safety and quality outcomes.
The post holder will be required to work with a high degree of autonomy and professional accountability. A primary aim of the role is to prevent unnecessary admission of patients to an acute hospital and support timely discharge into the community. The post holder will also have a responsibility for re-enablement, rehabilitation, health protection and promotion programmes that improve and reduce inequalities.
