What you'll be doing:
A fabulous opportunity is now available for Enrolled Nurses to join the Medical Ward at Nepean Hospital. These roles are available in either a permanent Full time or Part time positions.
Your role as the Enrolled Nurse will see you provide provision of safe patient care, provision of care activities to patients in accordance with the nursing care plan and under the supervision of a Registered Nurse within the scope of practice of an Enrolled Nurse specific to service need. You will contribute to collecting accurate health care information and maintaining accurate health care documentation as required and at all times communicate effectively with patients and other health care team members in accordance with appropriate protocol.
The EN works with the Registered Nurse (RN) as part of the health care team and demonstrates competence in the provision of person-centred care. Core practice generally requires the EN to work under the direct or indirect supervision of the RN. At all times, the EN retains responsibility for his/her actions and remains accountable in providing delegated nursing care. The need for the EN to have a named and accessible RN at all times and in all contexts of care for support and guidance is critical to patient safety.
You will at all times engage in analytical thinking; use information and/or evidence; and skilfully and empathetically communicate with all involved in the provision of care, including the person receiving care and their family and community, and health professional colleagues.
The EN standards are clinically focused and they reflect the EN’s capability to:
- provide direct and indirect care
- engage in reflective and analytical practice, and
- demonstrate professional and collaborative practice. ENs, where appropriate, educate and support other (unregulated) health care workers (however titled) related to the provision of care.
