About The Role
The Yorkshire Regional Burn Centre at Pinderfields Hospital provides specialist care for patients who have sustained thermal injuries or skin loss disorders. As a regional centre of excellence and part of the Northern Burn Care Operational Delivery Network, we receive referrals from across Yorkshire, the Humber and North Lincolnshire, serving a geographical catchment population of approximately 5 million people. As the regional adult burn centre, we provide care for patients with the most severe burn injuries, as well as those with less complex burn and skin loss conditions requiring specialist assessment and treatment.
Our adult burn service includes a 7-bedded inpatient unit, with 2 dedicated intensive care beds for the management of critically ill patients, a busy seven-day ambulatory care unit, and a regional outreach service supporting patients closer to home. Together, these services enable us to deliver specialist burn care throughout every stage of the patient journey, from emergency treatment and critical care through to rehabilitation and long-term follow-up.
Due to internal promotion, we have an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated and compassionate Band 5 Registered Nurse to join our dedicated team. This role offers the opportunity to work across both the inpatient unit and ambulatory care service, providing high-quality, specialist care to patients with burns and complex skin loss conditions.
Working closely with our experienced multidisciplinary team, you will deliver evidence-based care in accordance with the British Burn Association National Standards for Provision and Outcomes in Adult and Paediatric Burn Care (2023). You will play an important role in supporting patients and their families throughout their treatment, rehabilitation and reintegration, ensuring they receive exceptional, compassionate care in a supportive and friendly environment.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop your skills within a highly specialised service caring for patients with a wide range of burn injuries, including the most critically injured adults in the region. You will be joining a passionate, experienced team committed to delivering outstanding burn care, and full training and support will be provided to help the successful candidate develop the knowledge and confidence required for this rewarding role.
