ICU Registered Nurse (Day Shift)

Bring your SANC registration and your ward experience to a mine health centre in Vereeniging that needs a steady pair of hands. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

You'll report in Vereeniging. Relocation is not covered for this one.

• Supervise enrolled nurses and nursing assistants on your side of the ward
• Monitor vital signs, fluid balance and early warning scores, and escalate changes quickly
• Report adverse events and near misses on the incident system the same day
• Admit and discharge patients and explain medication and follow-up to families
• Run emergency trolley checks and respond to cardiac arrest calls
• Give scheduled medication, including Schedule 5 and 6 drugs, and sign the register
• Take part in ward rounds with doctors and record the new orders

• At least 1 year of post-community-service ward experience
• Valid BLS certificate; ACLS or PALS for ICU and emergency posts
• Nursing qualification via the R425 diploma or R174 degree route
• Solid knowledge of medication safety and the Nursing Act scope of practice

• Unit manager or shift leader experience
• Dispensing licence (Section 22A(15)) for clinic posts
• IMCI and NIMART training for primary health care work

• Night-shift and weekend allowances on top of basic pay
• Medical aid and pension fund contributions after probation
• Study support for post-basic specialities
• Funded CPD points and in-house clinical training

• Check your SANC receipt is for this year before you apply; an unpaid annual fee gets your application parked.
• For night-duty posts, say clearly in your cover note that you want permanent nights, as many applicants only want days.
