An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our established and highly respected Critical Care Outreach Team. The team delivers a cross site 24/7 service at Stoke Mandeville Hospital and Wycombe General Hospital at Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust.
We are looking for a highly motivated, innovative and expert practitioner to deliver patient-focused care to acutely ill, deteriorating and critically ill patients across the trust. The successful candidate will need to display excellent communication, interpersonal and leadership skills, be able to respond to rapidly changing and high-pressure situations.
Applicants for this role need to be able to influence practice, challenge current thinking and be able to support quality improvement initiatives to improve patient safety. We are therefore looking for candidates with significant critical or acute care experience at a senior level to support the Outreach team objectives and vision.
You will be able to work autonomously and as part of a team and have good critical thinking and decision-making skills. You will be instrumental in the early recognition of deterioration and deliver an effective response, liaising with the patient’s own team.
You will be able to facilitate smooth transitions of care for patients stepping down from Intensive and High Dependency Care to the general wards and be involved in the provision of a range of education for the multidisciplinary team. As a senior member of the team, you will be responsible for providing support and mentorship to junior team members and ward staff.
