## Job Content

### Job overview

We are looking for an enthusiastic, qualified nurse with relevant experience to join the Peritoneal Dialysis team, caring for patients receiving peritoneal dialysis at home.

You will be a proven team player with post-registration renal experience, including experience working at Band 5 level or equivalent. Previous experience caring for patients on peritoneal dialysis would be advantageous.

You will bring evidence of multi-disciplinary and multi-agency partnership working, along with the ability to both influence and embrace change. Well-developed communication skills are essential.

Our commitment to you

- Experienced nurse leadership to support you and your team when you need it

Welcoming you to our team

We are looking for enthusiastic and energetic individuals who work well under pressure and are keen to learn. As a great team player, you will also be self-motivated and able to work independently when needed.

You will be a professional who truly understands the importance of care, consideration, and respect for our patients, and who applies these values to colleagues at all levels.

We welcome applicants to visit our service informally to learn more about the role and hear about our future plans.

### Main duties of the job

Key objectives include the management of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis, the initiation and training of new patients, and the provision of ongoing support and care to patients and their carers/families.

You will be expected to deliver high-quality care to this complex patient group, support patients in their homes and in outlying hospitals, and provide telephone triage, advice, and consultation.

You will play a key role in educating and supporting healthcare professionals, patients, and significant others throughout the patient journey, with the ultimate aim of enhancing quality of life.

A non-medical prescribing qualification is desirable but not essential, as training will be provided.

Due to the nature of the role, you will be required to travel to different geographical locations across the Trust footprint in line with service needs, and therefore must be able to travel independently.
