## Description

We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic registered nurse to join our TAVI service at Wexham Park Hospital on a 12-month secondment/fixed-term contract, working part-time at 18.75 hours per week.

The successful candidate will work closely with the multidisciplinary team to ensure the delivery of high-quality, patient-centred care. The ideal candidate will have experience working within cardiology services, excellent communication and organisational skills, and a passion for delivering high-quality patient care.

Key responsibilities:

- Autonomously complete clinical assessments of patients in an outpatient setting to assess symptoms of aortic stenosis

- Identify specific patient needs and modifiable risks to inform MDT decision-making and support individualised procedural planning

- Provide patient education, information, and reassurance regarding the TAVI procedure

- Coordinate the patient pathway from referral and assessment through to intervention and follow-up

- Demonstrate excellent communication skills to liaise with the multidisciplinary team (MDT)

- Support timely MDT review, decision-making, and treatment planning

- Monitor waiting lists and support compliance with relevant pathway standards

- Coordinate post-TAVI clinic reviews and surveillance in accordance with local protocols

- Assess symptoms, functional recovery, and potential complications post-procedure in an outpatient setting

- Provide advice and signposting to appropriate services where ongoing support is required

- Act as a key point of contact for patients, families, and carers throughout the pathway

- Maintain accurate clinical documentation, monitor pathway performance, outcomes, complications, and waiting times

- Participate in audit, clinical governance, incident reviews, and service improvement initiatives

- Support compliance with NICE guidance

Previous experience in valvular heart disease, valve services, interventional cardiology, and heart failure would be advantageous but is not essential. This role offers an excellent development opportunity for nurses wishing to enhance their specialist cardiology knowledge and gain experience within a well-established TAVI service.

The salary for this role is £25,829 to £29,393 per annum.
