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 would suit a compassionate, organised and clinically confident nurse who is committed to delivering safe, effective and patient-centred care across a varied outpatient setting.
You will undertake comprehensive pre-operative assessments for patients undergoing a range of procedures, reviewing medical histories, completing clinical observations and identifying any risks or concerns that may affect treatment. You will provide clear information and advice to patients and their families, ensuring they understand the planned pathway, preparation requirements and any follow-up arrangements. Where necessary, you will liaise with consultants, anaesthetic teams, operating departments and other healthcare professionals to support timely and appropriate care.
Within the outpatient service, you will assist with clinics, treatments and investigations, maintaining high standards of infection prevention, documentation and patient safety. Responsibilities may include wound care, clinical procedures, phlebotomy, cannulation, medicines management and responding appropriately to changes in a patient’s condition. You will also contribute to the smooth running of clinics by preparing equipment, coordinating patient flow and ensuring accurate records are maintained in line with professional and local requirements.
Applicants must be registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council and have relevant post-registration experience. Experience in pre-assessment, outpatients, day surgery or a similar clinical environment would be advantageous. You should have sound knowledge of clinical assessment, safeguarding, infection control and risk management, together with the ability to recognise when escalation is required.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are essential, as is the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team. You will be expected to demonstrate professional integrity, flexibility and a commitment to continuous learning and service improvement. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills within a supportive clinical environment while making a meaningful difference to patients throughout their care journey.
