An exciting opportunity has arisen for a band 5 registered nurse to join our integrated stroke unit at Forth Valley Royal Hospital. The unit is a 23‑bed acute stroke ward providing 24‑hour assessment and ongoing care. We look for enthusiastic, highly motivated nurses who deliver excellent standards of care even under pressure, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills. As part of a multi‑disciplinary team you will work closely within the stroke services and maintain regular contact with other specialties across the hospital and community settings.
The unit contains hyperacute, acute and rehabilitation sections. All staff have the opportunity to work in the hyperacute section, caring for patients directly from the ED following thrombolysis or direct admissions.
