We are looking for a motivated, innovative, and critically minded practitioner to join our dedicated team.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you will ensure that high-quality, person-centred care is delivered in line with best practice. You will assess and manage clinical risk, coordinate care, and ensure that appropriate pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions are implemented in a timely manner to meet individual needs.
You will contribute to the development, implementation, and regular review of personalised care plans, ensuring that care remains responsive to changing needs. Through ongoing assessment and risk management, you will work collaboratively with service users and partner agencies to support recovery and facilitate safe, effective discharge planning where appropriate.
You will practise in accordance with the Trust's values.
About us
We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, in addition to our state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. We also care for people in their homes and provide services from facilities in local communities such as health centres. We give people greater choice and control over their care to help them to live independently at home and avoid hospital admission where appropriate. High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us. We have one of the most extensive patient experience programmes of any trust in England.
