All areas involve working with the full complement of the multidisciplinary team. There is a heavy focus on safe discharge from hospital, which also gives nursing staff great exposure to working with complex discharge teams and community teams. This really allows nursing staff an holistic approach to nursing care.

They will be responsible for assessment of care needs of patients and planning programmes of care, implementing and the evaluation of these programmes without direct supervision.
