With nearly 1,500 employees, the Department of Rehabilitation and Geriatrics is a medical center focused on the elderly and is composed of 6 services spread over 5 sites: Trois-Chêne, Loëx, Bellerive, Beau-Séjour, and Joli-Mont. It manages acute situations, notably through the emergency services of the Trois-Chêne hospital, age-related specific problems, medical rehabilitation, and palliative care.

The Bellerive Hospital cares for patients with neurological pathologies and in palliative care situations. These patients are hospitalized for short, medium, and long stays and are subject to an interdisciplinary therapeutic project aimed at discharge to home or a specialized facility.

Job Description

As a nurse within a neurology unit at Bellerive Hospital, which includes a prolonged neurological care sector, you autonomously and/or under medical delegation provide comprehensive and personalized care for patients with complex neurological pathologies, such as brain-injured patients.

You perform enhanced monitoring of neurological symptoms to anticipate complications in patients with long-term altered consciousness. You provide specific care such as tracheotomy care, suprapubic catheter care, and long-term feeding tube (PEG) care.

You support patients' families and create a care partnership by directing them to appropriate resources. Training in family support or conducting interviews in difficult contexts is an asset.

You work within an interprofessional team and coordinate the care services provided to patients. You also have a supervisory and teaching role for trainees and new staff.

Finally, you contribute to the development of care quality and engage in professional reflection based on the analysis of nursing care practices.

Qualifications

You hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing or an equivalent nursing diploma recognized by the Swiss Red Cross. Additional certified training in neurology or experience in neurological rehabilitation is a real asset.

A minimum of 2 years of experience is required.

You possess great rigor as well as a keen sense of organization and priority management. You demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills and have a strong interest in following patients with neurological pathologies.

You have excellent clinical situation analysis skills.

Thanks to your team spirit and communication skills, you work interprofessionally to unite all partners around a common vision to develop care projects for optimal patient and family care. You appreciate collaboration and multidisciplinary teamwork.

Comfort with computer tools is necessary to successfully carry out this mission, as well as a very good knowledge of the French language.
