Registered Nurse (Night Duty)

Bring your SANC registration and your ward experience to a step-down and sub-acute facility in Vereeniging that needs a steady pair of hands. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

Location: Vereeniging, Gauteng. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

• Keep clinical notes clear, timed and signed for audits and legal records
• 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
• Admit and discharge patients and explain medication and follow-up to families
• Prepare patients for theatre and receive them back from recovery
• Run emergency trolley checks and respond to cardiac arrest calls
• Take handover at the bedside and plan care for your allocated patients

• You can work 12-hour day or night shifts, weekends and public holidays
• Calm under pressure when a patient's condition turns quickly
• At least 1 year of post-community-service ward experience
• Valid BLS certificate; ACLS or PALS for ICU and emergency posts
• Current SANC registration as a Professional Nurse, with this year's annual fees paid
• Nursing qualification via the R425 diploma or R174 degree route

• Post-basic qualification in critical care, theatre or advanced midwifery
• Experience with electronic patient records or bedside charting systems
• Unit manager or shift leader experience

• Paid SANC annual fees at some groups
• Night-shift and weekend allowances on top of basic pay
• Funded CPD points and in-house clinical training
• Study support for post-basic specialities

• Check your SANC receipt is for this year before you apply; an unpaid annual fee gets your application parked.
• Put your SANC number and the units you've worked in at the very top of your CV; recruiters filter on these first.
