Registered Nurse (Night Duty)

Bring your SANC registration and your ward experience to a private maternity unit in Rustenburg that needs a steady pair of hands. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

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

• Take part in ward rounds with doctors and record the new orders
• Give scheduled medication, including Schedule 5 and 6 drugs, and sign the register
• Run emergency trolley checks and respond to cardiac arrest calls
• Prepare patients for theatre and receive them back from recovery
• Report adverse events and near misses on the incident system the same day
• Supervise enrolled nurses and nursing assistants on your side of the ward
• Do full patient assessments and update nursing care plans every shift

• You can work 12-hour day or night shifts, weekends and public holidays
• Solid knowledge of medication safety and the Nursing Act scope of practice
• Nursing qualification via the R425 diploma or R174 degree route
• At least 1 year of post-community-service ward experience

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

• Check your SANC receipt is for this year before you apply; an unpaid annual fee gets your application parked.
• List your speciality skills in plain words, such as "ventilated patients" or "normal deliveries", instead of just the ward name.
