Female Nurse Team Leader

Are you a compassionate and experienced Registered Nurse? Do you thrive in a leadership role and enjoy working in a professional, person-centred care environment?

Verity is in her mid-40s and lives independently in her own home with the support of a dedicated team of Support Workers who provide 24-hour care. She has an acquired brain injury and is looking for a Nurse Team Leader to join her care team. Someone who can bring clinical expertise, warmth, and strong leadership to her daily life and to support her team.

Verity is a vibrant individual with a great sense of humour who enjoys social activities such as quizzes, watching TV and films and planning for special occasions like Christmas and birthdays. She loves going out to the cinema, theatre and shopping, and has her own wheelchair-accessible vehicle for outings. Whilst Verity does not communicate verbally, she expresses her needs and feelings through body language and facial expressions. Her family and support team play an important role in interpreting these cues to ensure her comfort and wellbeing.

• Deliver safe, effective nursing care in Verity’s home and in the community.
• Lead and co-ordinate a team of Support Workers, ensuring high standards of care.
• Provide clinical interventions including PEG feeding, suctioning, respiratory care, catheter care and pressure care.

• Work closely with Verity’s family, Case Manager, and multidisciplinary team including therapists.
• Maintain care records, update care plans, manage rotas, supervise staff and oversee training and development. Bring clinical expertise, warmth and strong leadership to Verity's daily life and to support her care team.
