Location of Post:
There is currently one permanent whole-time vacancy available in CDM Hub, Tallaght PCC Russell Building, and Clondalkin PCC.
A panel may be formed as a result of this campaign from which current and future, permanent and specified purpose vacancies of full or part-time duration may be filled.
Purpose of the Post:
The role of the CNSp will differ according to the needs and configuration of established cardiology services at each site. The purpose of this CNSp, Cardiovascular Disease – Integrated Care post, is to provide expertise and specialist nursing services to patients with a cardiovascular condition both in hospital outpatient settings and in primary care. The post holder will liaise between acute cardiology services and integrated community cardiology services, along with other agencies, to deliver effective, evidence-based care. They will use resources efficiently to achieve the best possible outcomes, in keeping with the ICP CD model of care and HIQA standards.
The person appointed will work in newly formed Cardiology Integrated Care services as part of a multidisciplinary team delivering coordinated, evidence-based care for patients in primary care while liaising closely with secondary care. The CNSp. Cardiovascular Disease – Integrated Care (CVD-IC) will deliver nurse-led clinics, support patients and GPs in creating management plans, assist with diagnosis development, and provide education to patients and staff.
To ensure continuity of service, the CNSp may be required to rotate or cover other parts of the integrated cardiology service, such as Cardiac Rehabilitation. This promotes service integration and skillset development, depending on service needs at each site. If deemed appropriate, site rotation should occur within the first 3-6 months of taking up the post. The CNSp. CVD-IC caseload will initially focus on the following patient groups:
* Chronic Cardiovascular Disease
* Atrial Fibrillation
* Ischaemic Heart Disease
