Registered Nurse - Pre Assessment and Outpatients
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated and compassionate Registered Nurse to join a busy Pre-Assessment and Outpatients service. This role is suited to a qualified nurse who is committed to delivering safe, effective and patient-centred care across a varied clinical environment.
You will undertake comprehensive pre-operative assessments, including taking clinical histories, recording observations, reviewing investigations and identifying any risks or concerns that may affect a patient’s planned treatment. You will provide clear advice and education to patients and their relatives, helping them understand their proposed procedure, preparation requirements and recovery. Where necessary, you will liaise with medical, surgical and anaesthetic teams to ensure patients are appropriately assessed and prepared.
Within the outpatient setting, you will support the smooth running of clinics by assessing patients, assisting with procedures, administering medicines in line with local policy and maintaining accurate clinical records. You will recognise and escalate changes in a patient’s condition, contribute to effective discharge planning and promote high standards of infection prevention, safeguarding and clinical governance. The role also involves working collaboratively with colleagues across the wider multidisciplinary team and supporting service improvements.
Applicants must hold current professional registration as a Registered Nurse and have relevant post-registration experience. Experience in pre-assessment, outpatients, surgical nursing or a similar acute clinical setting would be advantageous. You will need sound clinical judgement, excellent communication skills and the ability to organise and prioritise your workload in a fast-paced environment. A calm, professional approach and a commitment to treating every patient with dignity, respect and confidentiality are essential.
You will be supported to develop your knowledge and skills through ongoing learning and professional development. In return, this role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to patients’ experiences while working as part of a friendly and dedicated clinical team.
