Clinical Nurse Lead

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the recently reformed Rose Lodge MDT and leadership team. Rose Lodge is a learning disability specialist assessment and treatment inpatient unit based in Hebburn, South Tyneside. Rose Lodge has 12 beds providing acute assessment and treatment by a multi-disciplinary team. All of the learning disability specialist assessment and treatment wards offer a multi-disciplinary approach (based on Bio-Psycho-Social Mode of Care) to care for adults aged 18 and over with learning disabilities or autism and mental health problems or severely challenging behaviour, who would benefit from admission to a specialist learning disability facility as opposed to a 'mainstream mental health hospital'. We are seeking confident and assertive individuals who are keen to contribute to the delivery of high quality nursing care and service development. You should have an interest in working within a busy and challenging environment, a level resilience and patience and will possess excellent verbal and written communication skills, as well as the ability to demonstrate a warm, patient centred approach to care. You should have positive leadership skills and able to lead a nursing team in delivering day to day care.
