We are looking for a dynamic and inspirational practitioner to take on an exciting opportunity as Enhanced Therapeutic Observations and Care Facilitator. This post is funded for 22.5 hours per week until 31 March 2026. As such, it is essential that a successful applicant could be released quickly. Please do speak to line manager before applying.
The post holder will develop and implement opportunities to improve the care offered to patients whose behaviours can result in additional challenges to ensure safe, high-quality care. Aligned to the NHSE Enhanced Therapeutic Observations and Care (ETOC) workstream, this will involve 4 key pillars:
1. Leadership and Oversight (Effective governance, data management and policy making)
2. Person Centred Care (Identifying needs, monitoring and stepdown process)
3. Education and Training (Ensuring staff are trained in ETO practices)
4. Workforce planning (Efficient deployment and resource management)
Working in partnership with a Matron and Divisional Director of Nursing, this post holder will provide key support and leadership to develop the current provision of Enhanced Care, to re-focus on provision of high-quality outcomes for patients requiring additional resource to maintain safety. A particular focus of this post will be to work with the practice development team to support the re-design and delivery of Trust wide education and training.
This post holder will work with cross-divisional subject matter experts to consider the complexities of ETOC provision to varied patient cohorts represented across the Trust (e.g. degenerative cognitive impairment, traumatic brain injury, mental health and personality disorders).
Accountable to the NMSK Cluster 3 Matron (as NMSK lead for management of behaviours that make provision of care challenging) the post holder will support this Trust wide Quality Improvement Project (QIP).
Key performance indicators refined within the strategy developed will include (but not limited to):
- Staff experience and safety
- Patient experience and safety
- Development of quality indicators for provision of ETOC
- Supporting temporary staffing reduction in line with Trust / NHSE targets
Strategies will likely include a significant focus on embedding meaningful activity and toolkits for staff when providing ETOC to focus on engagement and management techniques to enhance patient care and utilise every opportunity to provide therapy. In turn, it is anticipated this will support de-escalation and management of physically aggressive behaviours to strengthen staff and patient safety.
North Bristol NHS Trust employs over 12,000 staff providing healthcare to the residents of Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset from our award-winning hospital building at Southmead. We are the regional Major Trauma Centre, and an internationally recognised centre of excellence in a range of services and major specialities. Our vision is that by enabling our teams to be the best that they can be, we will provide exceptional healthcare, personally delivered.
North Bristol NHS Trust values all people as individuals. We aim to be an anti-discriminatory organisation and are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We welcome applicants from all underrepresented groups.
Working closely with Practice Development Teams, Ward Sisters, Matrons, Mental Health Liaison team and Divisional Management Teams, the post holder will consider new ways of working and alternative models to providing care to this patient cohort whilst monitoring the impact of any changes to ensure safety is maintained.
Please see job description for me details.
