Hereford, Herefordshire, United Kingdom Turning Point Full time

Job Introduction

At Turning Point, we've been helping people for 60 years. Our Herefordshire Recovery Service responds to the needs of people across the county to address substance use. As a member of the team, you'll make a real difference as you empower and enable people to change. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy support to enhance your own life too, as you make the role your own in a friendly and multidisciplinary team.

We are currently recruiting for a Registered Nurse (RGN) or Mental Health Nurse (RMN) to work in our Herefordshire Drug & Alcohol Recovery Service as a Specialist Substance Use Nurse, where you'll have the chance to make a real difference to the lives of the people we support who are experiencing difficulties from drugs and alcohol usage.

Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the opportunity and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress in your nursing career within a social enterprise. If you're ambitious and ready for a fresh challenge with a sector leader then this could be the opportunity for you.

Role Responsibility

You will undertake a diverse role from running well-being clinics in the community including full health and wellbeing assessments, Blood Borne Virus (BBV) screening and vaccination, supporting the management of alcohol & opiate community detoxifications, administering IM pabrinex & injectable buprenorphine and other harm reduction and well-being interventions to a range of service users.

You will have a real opportunity to help shape service delivery and contribute to delivering outstanding clinical services.

The Ideal Candidate

You will need to be a qualified nurse registered with the Nursing & Midwifery Council. As an employee you will have access to RCNi to assist with revalidation, indemnity insurance and support and supervision from the nurse manager and clinical lead. And of course, we're looking for a Nurse who loves talking to people with different needs, is genuinely interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience.

We value individual creativity and initiative and, whatever your role, you will be fully involved in identifying opportunities to improve the quality of our services and the service user experience. Your ideas will be listened to, and your suggestions implemented wherever possible. You will be supported in your role by extensive training to help develop your skills. Our learning culture encourages everyone to stay on top of the latest developments in their field and helps drive service improvement.

You will be required to travel to other hubs across the county, so your own vehicle or access to public transportation is essential.
