Haven Male PICU is our brand-new purpose built 8-bedded Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit at St Ann's Hospital, supporting men through the most acute phase of serious mental illness. This is specialist, fast-paced and rewarding environment where your clinical skills, compassion and calm leadership truly matter.

You will:

• Deliver high-quality, person-centred nursing care to patients detained under the Mental Health Act
• Lead shifts and act as a role model within a skilled multidisciplinary team

About us

You'll need strong clinical skills, emotional intelligence and the ability to remain calm in challenging situations. In return, you'll gain experience that will significantly enhance your professional confidence and career progression.

As a specialist service, we are able to provide opportunities to further develop your skills within specialised training such as RAID, Relational Security, DBT, CBT, enhanced risk assessment, and enhanced physical health interventions. Following successful completion of your 6 month probation period, you will meet with your supervisor to discuss your personal development plan which will identify your learning and training needs, so we can ensure you have all the skills you need to be the best you can be in your role.

We know that when our staff feel supported, valued and developed -- our patients benefit too.

If you're looking for a role where you'll be challenged, supported and inspired - and where you'll go home knowing you've made a real difference - Haven Male PICU could be your next step.
