Registered Nurse - Pre Assessment and Outpatients
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a dedicated Registered Nurse to join a busy Pre-Assessment and Outpatients service. This role is suited to a compassionate and organised nurse who is committed to delivering safe, effective and patient-centred care across a varied clinical environment.
You will undertake comprehensive pre-operative assessments, reviewing patients’ medical histories, medications, clinical observations and results to identify individual needs and potential risks. Working closely with patients, relatives and the wider multidisciplinary team, you will provide clear information, reassurance and guidance throughout the preparation process. You will also support the delivery of high-quality outpatient care, ensuring patients receive appropriate assessment, treatment, monitoring and follow-up.
Key responsibilities will include undertaking clinical assessments, developing and reviewing care plans, administering medicines in line with local policies, maintaining accurate patient records and escalating concerns promptly. You will contribute to the effective management of clinics, support patient flow and liaise with consultants, anaesthetic teams, administrative colleagues and other healthcare professionals to ensure a coordinated service.
The successful candidate will hold current UK NMC registration and have recent experience as a Registered Nurse, ideally within pre-assessment, outpatients, surgical services or a comparable setting. You will have sound clinical knowledge, excellent communication skills and the ability to assess patients confidently and prioritise workload in a fast-paced environment. Experience of working autonomously, alongside the ability to contribute positively to a team, is essential.
You will be expected to demonstrate a professional, approachable and inclusive manner, treating every patient with dignity, respect and compassion. A commitment to infection prevention, safeguarding, clinical governance, continuing professional development and quality improvement is also required. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your expertise within a supportive service and contribute to the delivery of safe, high-quality patient care.
