We serve a wide variety of patients with various medical conditions. We also deliver inpatient chemotherapy if this is required during their stay.

Ensure effective communication with patients, carers, multidisciplinary team and the wider health and social care community.

Practice in accordance with Health Board standards and statutory requirements and operate within the boundaries of the role and assessed competencies.

Use personal effectiveness and knowledge to contribute to the development and delivery of a quality service.

Work proactively as a member of the multi disciplinary and multi professional healthcare team, in support of registered practitioners.

Manage a small defined caseload of patients under the supervision of the registered nurse..

Administer within scope of competence prescribed medication/medicinal products where designated according to BCUHB policy.

This post is fixed term / secondment for 12 months due to the needs of the service.
