We have a great opportunity for full-time band 6 nurses to work in Intensive Support Element of the Dementia & Older People’s Mental Health Team based in Haywards Heath, West Sussex. Intensive Support operates an 8am - 7pm shift pattern, with a 1-hr break, Monday to Fridays, and 9am - 5pm at weekends and bank holidays. There may be on occasions a need to change this shift pattern to 9-5pm; 7 days a week at short notice to meet any changes that may occur in the service.
You will be part of a highly-skilled and supportive multi-disciplinary team. You will receive regular managerial and clinical supervision. This is a challenging but rewarding work as we receive positive feedback from our service users and carers. Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust has recently achieved Outstanding from CQC for the care it provides.
The post holder will be expected to travel across the geographical areas of Mid Sussex and Crawley and Horsham areas covered by the team, so the ability to travel to remote areas is essential.
Main duties of the job
The role of this post is to actively engage those requiring an increased level of support with the aim of keeping people within their home and maintaining their wellbeing and independence as far as possible. We are looking for individuals who are dynamic, compassionate, good communicator who are able to demonstrate a holistic and person-centred approach to their work.
You will also need to be able to work cohesively with other services both within our Trust, and with other partner agencies. We follow a multi-disciplinary approach and within that context you will manage a caseload of older adults as a team.
Welcome from our Chief Executive
Our organisation is expanding and we're looking for people with the right values, skills and/or potential to join us. We need people with energy, expertise, enthusiasm to help us provide the very best possible specialist NHS mental health and learning disability care. This involves helping us achieve our strategy to improve the quality of life for the communities we serve through People, Prevention and Partnerships.
So what can we offer you in return?
We're an organisation which puts people first. We'll do everything possible to help you feel respected, valued and included. We'll help you learn, acquire new skills and gain further experience to support your career development. And we'll provide the opportunity for you to bring your fresh ideas to work about how we can do things differently and continue improving.
You will also be joining a health and care system committed to working together to do the best we can for the communities we serve. Above all, at Sussex Partnership you'll have the chance to make a difference to the lives of the patients, carers and families across our communities.
As a Trust we are committed in making a difference. Your development is important to us, so don't forget to ask us during interview what opportunities we can offer. We can offer fully funded lifelong learning opportunities such as an apprenticeship from GCSE to Masters level.
If you like the sound of that, then come and join our team.
