This is an exciting opportunity for a Healthcare Assistant to join our renal unit at Frimley Park Hospital and to develop into the role of a Dialysis Assistant, Band 3 .
We are looking for an enthusiastic full-time Band 3 Dialysis Assistant with the qualification of NVQ level 3 in health and social care or equivalent.
The candidates are expected to have experience for 1 year in a hospital environment dealing with the general public. They need to be flexible and able to rotate on to days and weekends.
You will be looking after patients with chronic renal dialysis needs requiring an inpatient stay and those with severe Acute Kidney Injury with the support of registered nurses.
In return we will offer you:
• A full induction programme
• A renal training programme
• A competency based appraisal system
We positively promote staff development with the support of the Practice Development team, and you will have the opportunity to develop your skills.
Our shift pattern is 07.00 -19.30 for Long day shifts, 07:00 – 15:00 for Early shifts and 12.45-20.45 for Late shifts. There will be occasional night shifts available and the shift pattern is 19.45 – 08:15.
Candidates who are interested in this exciting and challenging world of Renal Nursing, please contact Sijo Stephen (Senior Charge Nurse) on 03006 133575 and arrange an informal visit to the ward.
We are a small 8 bedded ward, which takes great pride in being open and friendly. We also have an extremely supportive multidisciplinary team and a group of consultants that are always ready to support their staff.
We nurse patients with both acute and chronic kidney injury. Patients with acute kidney injury are admitted to our ward from all specialities within the Trust. This allows a great deal of exposure to all areas of medical and surgical care and as such we are always looking to recruit staff from all specialities, even those with little or no renal experience.
All we ask is that you have passion and pride in the care you give to your patients. We set high standards and will expect you to meet these.
For our chronic patients we offer both haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, these are skills that can not be learned on other wards in the Trust.
As with all areas that treat chronic patients we get to know our patients over multiple hospitals stay. This exposure lets you get to know the real person and not just their illness. We have to say that this is one of the real gems of this ward and Renal nursing.
Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust is committed to being an inclusive and disability confident employer and has been awarded the Gold for the Armed Forces Employment Recognition Scheme.
