This is a unique opportunity to play a leading role in the development of East Kent Hospitals' new Level 2 Paediatric Critical Care Service, helping more children and young people receive specialist care closer to home. As the Paediatric Practice Development Critical Care Lead, you will drive education, workforce development and clinical excellence, ensuring our teams have the skills, confidence and support needed to deliver safe, high-quality critical care.
We are looking for an experienced and passionate children's nurse who is motivated by improving patient outcomes, developing others and leading change. You will work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, regional networks and senior leaders to embed evidence-based practice, develop competencies and support the successful implementation of this exciting new service.
In return, you'll have the opportunity to influence service development at a strategic level, support the growth of future paediatric critical care services, and make a lasting difference to children, young people and their families across East Kent. If you are an inspiring clinical leader with a passion for education, innovation and excellence, we'd love to hear from you
