Job summary
We are recruiting for a Registered Children's Nurse who shares our vision to be trusted to provide consistently outstanding care and exemplary service to our patients.

We have our children's 20-bedded acute ward, a day services unit and extensive children's community services.

We will work with you to help you grow in your role and take your career in the direction you want to go. If you want to stay in your role, that's fine too. We'll help you be the best you can be.

At the heart of everything we do are our core values: Include, Respect, and Improve. We encourage you to embrace these values throughout the recruitment process and in your role with us.

Main duties of the job
The successful candidate will identify, assess, plan, implement and continuously evaluate the care of a defined group of patients, within the unit, in partnership with the child and family, ensuring that the highest standards of care are delivered to meet the physical, emotional, spiritual and social needs of each child and their family, facilitating a return to optimal health.

You will also ensure that due regard and respect are given to the customs, values and spiritual beliefs of children and their families.

The post holder will promote an environment that reflects the psychosocial and developmental needs of children and young people, in terms of play, recreational facilities and educational provision. Ensuring specific provision for those with special needs.

You will be courteous and helpful to all patients and visitors in the ward/department and act to safeguard and protect children/young people at all times.

About us
At East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.

We run the following hospitals:
  • The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
  • New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
  • Hertford County, Hertford
  • Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood

We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation, and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.

We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. This means that any employee is entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns and we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made and considered formally, and will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.
