Registered Nurse - Pre Assessment and Outpatients
An exciting opportunity is available for a Registered Nurse to join a busy Pre-Assessment and Outpatients service. This role is suited to a motivated and compassionate nurse who is committed to delivering safe, effective and patient-centred care across a varied clinical environment.
You will undertake comprehensive pre-operative assessments, identifying individual health needs, potential risks and any factors that may affect a patient’s suitability for surgery or treatment. Working closely with patients, relatives and the wider multidisciplinary team, you will provide clear information, reassurance and preparation advice throughout the assessment process.
In the outpatient setting, you will support the delivery of high-quality care during clinics and procedures, including patient observations, clinical assessments, treatment interventions, wound care, health education and discharge planning. You will ensure that care is delivered in accordance with professional standards, clinical policies and relevant legislation, maintaining accurate and timely documentation at all times.
The successful candidate will contribute to the smooth running of the department, supporting efficient patient flow, coordinating appointments and escalating concerns appropriately. You will work collaboratively with medical, surgical and administrative colleagues, helping to promote a positive patient experience and a culture of continuous improvement. The role may also involve assisting with audits, service development, stock management and the supervision or support of junior staff and learners.
You must be a registered nurse with current professional registration and relevant post-registration experience. Experience in pre-operative assessment, outpatients, surgical nursing or a similar clinical environment is desirable. You will need excellent communication and organisational skills, sound clinical judgement and the ability to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced setting.
In return, you will have access to ongoing learning and development opportunities, a supportive team environment and the chance to make a meaningful difference to patients at every stage of their treatment journey.
