1. PURPOSE OF THE ROLE
Unicares complex care division delivers nursing interventions in peoples own homes under the regulated activity of Treatment of Disease, Disorder or Injury. The people we support depend on that care being clinically correct every time: a tracheostomy mismanaged, a ventilator alarm misread or a rescue medication given late has immediate and irreversible consequences.
The Head of Nursing holds professional and clinical accountability for that practice. The postholder sets the clinical governance framework for the division, owns the competency and delegation architecture on which safe delivery depends, assures that clinical standards are met in every package, and provides the professional line for the registered nurses delivering it.
