The role involves working very closely with the Acute Frailty and Virtual Ward multidisciplinary team (MDT) and is a pivotal role in ensuring all patients within the Virtual Ward receive the best possible care and service. This exciting new post is available for a dynamic and experienced Nurse with an interest to the provision of care to patients suffering from frailty.
You will be required to work autonomously across the BHR area including within the Acute Frailty & emergency departments as well as visiting patients in care homes and in the community, providing a range of services using your enhanced clinical assessment and treatment skills, to assess and manage patients.
The virtual ward will initially be patients who have been admitted to the virtual ward following discharge from an Acute Hospital ward however will develop to accept patients with direct admission from primary care and other community-based providers.
Gweithio i'n sefydliad
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
