Clinical Unit Manager

About The Role

What was it that made you decide to become a nurse? Did you want to provide Kind Care and make a difference to people in need? Was it your love of learning, and the opportunity to work closely with multi-professional teams in a field that is constantly evolving? Whatever your reason, at HC One, the Kind Care Company, we can offer you a career where your kindness will be truly rewarded. Whether you are at the start of your exciting career journey, or have years of experience as a registered nurse, working within a care home environment can be incredibly rewarding. It embodies the practice of nursing, all while building meaningful, long-lasting relationships with Residents and their loved ones. We are looking for kind nurses to join our dedicated care home teams across the country, offering enhanced rates of pay that progress with your experience alongside a wide range of attractive company benefits.

About You

In your role as a Clinical Unit Manager at HC One, you’ll value one thing above all: Kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. And, by joining us, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people. Being a Clinical Unit Manager will mean taking responsibility for a specific part of the home and delivering the very best level of care. Not to mention running the entire place when the Home Manager and Deputy Home Manager are absent. So, whether you’re reporting that the new lady who just came in appears to have some mobility issues, asking a gentleman to provide a sample for monitoring or administering a medicine to someone, you’ll always have resident dignity and wellbeing in mind above all.

You will be a Registered Nurse with a valid Pin number and will understand your commitment to your profession through the standards of practice set by the NMC. You will have a passion to mentor and share your knowledge with your Colleagues, along with providing support as a practice supervisor and assessor to students. You will understand the importance of effective communication, both verbally and written, and role model professional behaviours. You will advocate and deliver a person-centred approach to care for the people living in our care home and their families. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and therefore it is important that you are able to recognise the signs which may indicate possible abuse, harm or neglect in its different forms and know what to do if there are any concerns. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
