Rapid Access Nurse or Paramedic

NHS AfC: Band 6

Trosolwg o'r swydd

Camden Rapid Access Services is a Physical health admission avoidance service. Potential post holders should ideally possess a valid UK Driving licence (a car will be provided when required), though suitable non-driving candidates will be considered and provided with an Oyster card while on shift. Non-driving practitioners will be expected to be able to undertake the same number of visits per day as driving colleagues.

Are you a Registered Nurse or Paramedic seeking a new challenging role in the community? The Camden Rapid Access Services (Camden RAS) is currently seeking to employ a Band 6 Registered Nurse or Paramedic with substantial experience in acute care (e.g. A&E; AMU; Paramedic). The ideal candidate will be confident in top-to-toe examination and succinct history taking.

Camden RAS covers the entire borough of Camden. Our overall aim is to avoid unnecessary hospital admissions, as part of the NHS Long term plan. The benefits of keeping patients in their own homes are numerous and varied, from reducing Healthcare Acquired Infections (HCAIs) to promoting ongoing independence.

As an NHS Trust we strongly encourage and support vaccination as this remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course patients and service users when working on our healthcare settings.
