NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society. Responsibilities As part of a multidisciplinary team the post holder will have responsibility for assessment of care needs, evaluation of care plans, and ensuring the delivery of high quality care to patients. In the absence of the Clinical Lead the post holder will have continuing responsibility for the management of the Department including supervision and deployment of staff. The post holder has responsibility and accountability for maintaining both clinical and staff governance. The post holder will be expected to participate in duty rosters consisting of day, late, weekend and night shift working. The post holder will be required to participate in on call rosters, which provide 24 hour cover over 7 days per week. Qualifications We are looking for an inspirational leader who is caring, compassionate and motivated to join our strong, empowered and highly skilled nursing family. Additional Requirements To work in the United Kingdom, there is a legal requirement for an individual to demonstrate that they have the relevant permission to work in the country. This permission is, without exception, granted by the UK Visa and Immigration Service. This post requires the post holder to have a PVG Scheme membership/record. If the post holder is not a current PVG member for the required regulatory group (child and/or adult), an application will need to be made to Disclosure Scotland and deemed satisfactory before they can begin in post. Due to legislative changes from 1 April 2025, this post may require a different level of criminal records check than is currently the case. If the post is assessed as a "regulated role", your appointment will be subject to joining the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme. Any further changes to the required checks will be confirmed by the Hiring Manager or the Recruitment Team. Benefits and Support We will fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices. We anticipate a high level of interest in this position and may close the vacancy early once a sufficient amount of applications are received.
