Position Overview
The role of Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) within the Solihull Healthcare Partnership (SHP) team is essential for delivering comprehensive care to patients with both immediate healthcare needs and those requiring ongoing support. We welcome applications from experienced CNS candidates with specialized interests in areas such as acute care, geriatric care, and mental health, as well as those with a more generalist background.
As a seasoned nursing professional, you will operate within your defined professional scope. Your expertise will enable you to conduct initial clinical assessments through telephonic or digital triage, and when necessary, facilitate in-person evaluations. You will gather patient histories and perform clinical assessments to establish diagnoses, treatment plans, and evaluate patient care outcomes. Your role will involve making informed clinical decisions and providing expert care to patients within the SHP framework. You will collaborate with a broader clinical team on-site, with opportunities to seek guidance or escalate complex health issues as needed.
Key Responsibilities
The primary objective of this position is to assist the SHP team in delivering exceptional care to our patient community while enhancing their overall experience. In this capacity, you will contribute to service enhancements and share insights on improving patient services and workforce satisfaction. Your responsibilities will also include mentoring and developing both clinical and non-clinical team members, reflecting our commitment to professional growth at SHP.
You will work in partnership with a multidisciplinary general practice team to address patient needs, ensuring adherence to established policies and procedures while providing nursing leadership when necessary. We seek highly motivated CNS candidates with independent prescribing capabilities to join our team. This role requires you to deliver timely, high-quality, patient-centered clinical care, addressing patient needs with the utmost adherence to evidence-based practices.
Your duties will encompass follow-up care for patients needing further evaluation, managing referrals, and processing results from diagnostic tests and medication requests.
