Urgent Care Services, comprising of The Acute Response Team (ART), Frailty, Virtual wards and East Kent Night Nursing Service (EKNNS), provides short term health, rehabilitation and care support to enable service users to remain in the community / home environment. This may include treating acutely unwell people that would otherwise require hospital admission.

Careprovided by the EKNNS team includes End of life care, catheter care and other urgent care that is unplannedand cannot wait until the following day.

Home is nationally evidenced to be the best place to recover and regain independence. Enablement and rehabilitation will be the priority focus with active participation from service users in order to achieve maximum independence.

We are working with East Kent Hospitals University Trust, who are leading on developing avirtual ward for people with acute respiratory infections, such as a chest infection, or with an underlying condition, like COPD, to be cared for at home.

Patients who agree to be discharged earlier from hospital, will be monitored at home using technology, such as apps, wearables or other medical devices remotely - and supported by a consultant, specialist GP or advanced practitioner. What technology will be used is still being scoped as we co-design the wards with patients and colleagues during the months ahead.

If you are interested in a new challenge and an exciting new change then this just may be the job for you.
