Deputy Charge Nurse Leader

4 weeks ago


Haddington, East Lothian, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time
About the Role

NHS Scotland is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse work environment, where every employee feels valued and empowered to excel. We strive to create a workplace that reflects the communities we serve, and we welcome applications from individuals from all backgrounds.

In line with our commitment to equality and diversity, we are reducing our full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week, effective from 1 April 2024, without any change in pay. This change will also be applied pro-rata for part-time staff. This adjustment will be reflected in the job advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37-hour working week immediately, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period, for which you will be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Recruiting Board.

We are committed to supporting disabled candidates, and those with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent, by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide leadership for the delivery of patient care within a 24-bedded step-down ward.
  • Have managerial responsibility for these 24-bedded wards in the absence of the Senior Charge Nurse, including supervision and deployment of staff.
  • As part of a multidisciplinary team, be responsible for assessment of care needs, evaluation of care plans, and ensuring the delivery of high-quality care to patients.
  • Maintain both clinical and staff governance.
  • Have a PVG Scheme membership/record. If not a current PVG member for the required regulatory group, an application will need to be made to Disclosure Scotland and deemed satisfactory before beginning in post.

Please note that this post is part-time, and the salary will be pro-rata.
