We are looking to recruit forward thinking, enthusiastic, dynamic and motivated registered nurses who share these values to join our small Quality and Clinical Assurance Team. It's an exciting time to join us as we are undergoing a period of change and are looking for people committed to the highest standards of patient care who can help us make a real difference to patients and to service improvements as we continue to evolve and grow. This is a fantastic opportunity to shape the services we provide and make a real difference to the quality of care provided to our patients.

Main duties of the job

* Exploring, supporting and facilitating change in clinical practices
* Supporting the development of policy, procedures and processes; setting standards
* Supporting the development of expanded practice and new ways of working
* Monitoring clinical care by gathering relevant data through performing audits, observations of care, benchmarking and quality assurance visits
* Providing analysis, interpretation and production of reports

You will have the essential skills of good communication with all members of the multidisciplinary team; you will be comfortable with challenging and listening to differing opinions.
We would highly recommend arranging an informal visit with the Quality and Clinical Assurance Team to provide you with an opportunity to ask questions and find out more about the role.
