We are a 13-bed female acute ward, providing evidence-based mental health treatment for both pregnant women and women with babies under one year old.

Our service is for women who present with an acute or relapsing mental illness e.g. schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, affective disorders. Additionally, and unique to the perinatal specialism, is the presentation of postpartum psychosis which is considered a psychiatric emergency.

Our aim in promoting recovery is twofold: a) for women to develop confidence in their vital role as mothers and to have a lasting return to their community and b) for babies to grow up to be physically healthy, emotionally capable and securely attached so that they can lead happy lives.

We do not expect you to come to us as experts in this specialist field or even to have ever held a baby! However, you can expect us to train you to become expert over time. This is a great opportunity to build on your core nursing skills in a creative, supportive and forward-thinking team.

Main duties of the job

About the role:

As a primary nurse on the unit you will have responsibility for the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of care given to mothers and babies on the unit and ensure records associated with this process are maintained.

This may include the co-ordination of care of service users liaising with other members of the multidisciplinary team where necessary. The successful candidate will regularly co-ordinate shifts and administer prescribed medication.

The successful candidate will carry out nursing procedures to a standard that ensures safe and effective care, and complies with The Nursing and Midwifery Council's Code of Professional Conduct. The successful candidate will act as a role model for junior staff and students and be proactive in ongoing service development and improvement.

There is an expectation that the successful candidate will facilitate service user involvement in all aspects of service delivery.

We are committed to the development of the people that come to work with us. We will invest in you and support you to maximise your potential. As part of your on-going development, you will receive regular supervision and training in order to enable you to flourish within the service.

As a new member of the team you will receive a robust induction which will include supernumerary time to familiarise yourself with the work of the unit, your colleagues, the ward timetable and to complete mandatory training appropriate for your role.
