Job content

Working on our Acute Respiratory Care Unit (ARCU), the nursing associate will have a breadth of knowledge across the fields of nursing, providing holistic & person centered care & support for people of all ages in a variety of settings.

The nursing associate works independently under the leadership of registered nurses.

Nursing associates are equipped with the knowledge, understanding, skills attitudes and behaviours relevant to employment as a nursing associate and will work to a nationally recognised code of conduct. Nursing associates will be registered with Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).

Nursing associates contribute to the health and wellbeing of patients and service users, and apply across all health &care settings. Integral to all of this is the ability to communicate effectively, with sensitivity and compassion, and to manage relationships with people.

Are you a qualified Nursing Associate?

Our ARCU, is a acute respiratory ward, caring for patients with a variety of lung conditions such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV), Asthma, Lung fibrosis and TB including patients stepping down from ICU/HDU.

We have strong links with both respiratory nurse specialists and community staff and we work closely with all members of our MDT to provide quality care and treatment for our patients.

Staff will receive ongoing training and development across a wide range of in house courses, offering respiratory competences in NIV and various other lung conditions. We also can offer a fantastic preceptorship programme for newly qualified nurses.

The successful candidates will be working under the direct supervision of the trained nurse to support and contribute to the delivery of Right Care.

We are always looking for enterprising and innovative approaches to the way we provide our services. We are a national centre for telemedicine and introduced telehealth to the UK offender healthcare sector and also provide the service to patients in their care homes. Community matters to us and we are supported by 400 dedicated volunteers and have strong links with Bradford University, Craven College and Leeds City College to ensure we inspire the workforce of the future.

We want to attract staff who embrace our ‘Right Care’ behaviours of compassion, a commitment to quality of care and working together for patients – we want to make these part of our DNA.
