Post-operative recovery is tailored to each speciality, and you will be supported to provide this to your group of patients which will involve drain care, wound management, removal of packs, removal of transradial bands, and cardiac monitoring and many more as we take on new procedures.
In addition the ward also takes medical and surgical patient transfers to help with the current hospital capacity and flow therefore allowing a mix of both surgical and medical experience and care at present.
Main duties, tasks & skills required
You will be required to work flexibly within the team in a dynamic and changeable environment which can evolve throughout the day with competing demands and post-operative requirements.
