Summary
A rare opportunity has arisen in our Day Treatment Unit as a band 5 staff nurse.
The Day treatment Unit is a specialist unit that provides care on the same day for a wide variety of patients, either diagnosing medical conditions through biopsies or investigations or controlling medical conditions through medications.
The successful candidate will work alongside the existing members of the DTU team to provide a high standard of care to patients who require medications, procedures of investigations to either control or diagnose medical conditions.
Detailed Job description given below.
The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) King’s Lynn is located near some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK, along the north Norfolk coast, and not far from Sandringham House.
We provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community-based healthcare services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, in addition to parts of Breckland, Cambridgeshire and South Lincolnshire.
We have more than 4,000 staff and volunteers, approximately 530 beds, and a helipad for air ambulances. We work with neighbouring hospitals for the provision of tertiary services, including as part of regional partnership and network models of care, such as the trauma network.
In February 2022 the significant progress that has been made at QEH was recognised by the Care Quality Commission who rated the Trust as ‘Good’ in all of the core services they inspected. They recommended the Trust moves out of the recovery support system (formerly special measures).
The Day Treatment Unit are looking for someone who is compassionate about patient care and who is dedicated to providing a high standard of care.
The team have built a good rapport with many of their patients due to the nature of DTU they are able to see some of their patients on a regular basis due to the ongoing treatment programmes of the patients they care for.
