About The Role

ADD TO LIFE. EVERY LIFE
 
Be the person who makes all the difference

Secure environments are one of the most challenging, yet rewarding places for healthcare professionals to work. If you’re looking for a role where you can develop your existing nursing skills and learn something new every day in an environment that never stands still, then this could be the opportunity for you.

As a substance misuse nurse you will work as part of our early days in custody team. You will complete a detailed reception screen and assess risk on new patients. You will ascertain what needs that patient requires within those first 48 hours and make a referral to the EDIC referral Hub. You will also work in the Conibere Unit which is our drug stabilization unit.  You will be RCGP level 2 trained and participate and lead in alcohol and drug reviews. You will complete observations prior to medication administration to ensure that patients are not at risk of overdose.
