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 will suit an experienced nurse who is committed to delivering safe, compassionate and patient-centred care across the planned care pathway.
You will undertake comprehensive pre-operative assessments, reviewing patients’ medical histories, current health status, medications and individual needs. Working collaboratively with anaesthetic, surgical and outpatient teams, you will identify potential risks, arrange appropriate investigations and escalate concerns promptly to ensure patients are fully prepared for treatment. You will provide clear information and advice to patients and their families, helping them understand procedures, optimise their health and make informed decisions about their care.
Within the outpatient setting, you will support the delivery of high-quality clinical care, assisting with assessments, treatments, procedures and follow-up appointments. Duties may include wound care, phlebotomy, clinical observations, specimen collection, patient education and the safe administration of medicines in accordance with relevant policies and professional standards. You will maintain accurate, timely and confidential records, contribute to effective discharge planning and ensure continuity of care through clear communication with colleagues and other services.
The successful candidate will hold current UK nursing registration and have relevant post-registration experience. Experience in pre-assessment, outpatients, surgical nursing or a comparable clinical environment would be advantageous. You will have sound clinical judgement, excellent communication skills and the ability to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced setting. A proactive approach to identifying and managing risk, together with a commitment to infection prevention, safeguarding and patient confidentiality, is essential.
You will be expected to work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team while also demonstrating initiative and accountability for your own practice. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your clinical skills within a supportive service focused on delivering efficient, high-quality care and an excellent patient experience.
