Hi, I'm Mat, and I'm the Community Operational Manager for Paediatrics in CCICP. I am delighted to be able to tell you about an opportunity that has arisen for an experienced Paediatric Nurse to join our Special Needs Nursing Team.
Within the role you will support across our special schools in the area in a senior Paediatric Nurse capacity, providing leadership and support to our nursing teams within the different locations. You will have a delegated caseload, and will play a key role in the coordination of the care of the child/young person within their setting, which will include responsibilities around safeguarding, medication reconciliation and administration, liaison with families and other members of the MDT, and developing key relationships with our education colleagues. This role is primarily based at Russett School, who have an already excellent system in place around supporting medical needs for children and young people.
You will work alongside our existing senior nursing team to help lead the Nursing teams in the different settings, and play a key role in overall service development.
You will be extremely well supported by our excellent Clinical lead and vastly experienced team of Special Needs Nurses across the sites. Training and personal development is always encouraged in CCICP.
