What we’re looking for
This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-paced and growing organisation.
We’re looking for a Nurse Team Leader to support our clinical provision of Residential Service across our Passmores House Service.
As Nurse Team Leader you will provide visible, effective clinical leadership to the nursing team in the service. Supported by the Medical Lead and in collaboration with the Area Director and Service Manager you will ensure the delivery of safe, effective, evidence based and compassionate care. This will include
• Providing line management and supervision of the nurses
• Coordination and oversight of nursing activities
• Lead on clinical governance and respond to internal and external audits and reviews.
We are looking for someone who is flexible, works well as part of a team and committed to working within set policies, procedures and protocols. We provide compassionate and professional support for individuals on their journey to recovery from drug and alcohol dependency.
You will:
• be part of a dynamic multidisciplinary team that is delivering an excellent detoxification and rehabilitation service.
• provide support to a group of people who use our service and work collaboratively with colleagues and other key stakeholders.
• deliver evidence based, low threshold interventions and harm reduction advice
Through a variety of interventions, you will encourage individuals to develop external interests and build on their support networks and develop recovery capital to support community reintegration.
An empathic and non-judgmental approach is imperative, as this role involves working with a wide range of challenging scenarios and behaviours. Good time management and team working are also essential skills required for this role.
This is not just a job – you’ll help people rebuild their lives, reconnect with their family and friends, return to work or education, and much more.
We’re looking for individuals with compassion, good communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure.
If you’re someone who is a good listener, stays curious, and wants to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
