Staff Nurse - Same Day Emergency Care

Job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for enthusiastic and energetic professionals to join the SDEC team at Prince Charles Hospital. We are a friendly, enthusiastic and dedicated team of highly motivated skilled professionals.

Same day emergency care (SDEC) is one of the many ways the NHS is working to provide the right care, in the right place, at the right time for patients.

Under this care model patients presenting at hospital with relevant conditions can be rapidly assessed, diagnosed and treated without being admitted to a ward, and If clinically safe to do so, will go home the same day their care is provided.

If successful you will be required to work over a 7 day period, a mixture of nights and days, weekends and bank holidays.
