A Vacancy at University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust.
We have permanent full and part time positions available for ambitious children’s or dual registered nurses.
Apollo 35 ward, our adolescents unit which has been specifically designed for young people aged 11 – 16 with a variety of medical, mental health, oncological and surgical conditions. On this ward we have 14 beds as well as activity & breakout rooms for teenagers.
Apollo 35 is one of only a very few adolescent wards in the UK. Working on Apollo you get exposed to a multitude of specialities, you will develop skills in surgical and orthopaedic nursing care, the care of the oncology patient & gain skills to administer chemotherapy, you will be supported to care for young people who need hospital care due to their mental ill health and an exposure to all the medical specialities.
Our patients are a mix between long term and short term patients, some we get to know over many years and support them in their transition to adult services.
Nonni, the ward sister says, “working with young people in a bespoke, purpose built adolescent ward is a different type of nursing and one that is unbelievably rewarding. We are a fun supportive team who celebrate the specific nursing care that we give to young people in hospital.”
Fun facts about Apollo:
- working alongside music from the jukebox is fab
- we wear different uniforms to ensure we are young people friendly
- our patients challenge us to do Tik Toks constantly
- our ethos is that young people are a medical speciality in their own right and need tailored specific care that we deliver to meet their needs
There are also a multitude of educational opportunities available through Faculty of Children’s Nurse Education
