It is a truly exciting time to be working at University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust (UHD) and we have a fantastic opportunity to join our Trust as Deputy Chief Nurse. All of us at team UHD are committed to our Patient First Improvement System and we share the same five core objectives; to see our patients sooner; to be a great place to work; to improve patient experience; to save lives and improve patient safety and to use every NHS pound wisely. If you share this ambition, then we would love to hear from you.
We are committed to ensuring that all patients at UHD receive quality care, which results in a positive experience for them, their families and carers. Our ambition is to be rated as the safest Trust in the country and every team at UHD is empowered to make continuous improvement by engaging with patients in a meaningful way.
We are seeking a Deputy Chief Nurse with the right values, commitment and energy to support delivery of our Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professionals strategy and to help us ensure that UHD is a Trust renowned for excellence in quality and safety, that delivers outstanding care to our patients and their families.
The Deputy Chief Nurse role will deputise across the full range of the Chief Nurse portfolio and work with Care Group Directors of Nursing and wider clinical and Allied Health Professionals to promote the highest standards of care and behaviours.
We are looking to speak with passionate, empathetic nursing leaders who have significant experience maintaining and providing assurance on clinical governance systems and processes. You will have an excellent track record of improving CQC standards, and help lead a portfolio including clinical policy, workforce strategy, clinical quality and safety, patient experience, complaint resolution, incident reporting and investigation.
This is an exceptional opportunity to join our Trust, and we are looking to speak with inclusive leaders who can work in collaboration with our staff and partners. We are seeking credible and resilient nursing leaders who will help us achieve our vision of providing excellent healthcare for our patients and wider community and ensure UHD is a great place to work, now and for future generations.
We value and promote diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity for all. We believe that the best organisations are those that reflect the communities they serve. We want to increase the diversity of our NHS leadership and particularly encourage applications from candidates from the global majority, women, LGBTQ+ communities, and from people with lived experience of disability.
