Nurse

The Nurse will be working in the elderly home and caring for the needs of elderly patients by making sure they maintain acceptable levels of personal hygiene, have clean beds & receive proper nutrition, administering medication and drawing blood.

The duties for a registered nurse in an elderly care facility vary by the facility. Duties might include basic assistance such as helping patients bathe, dress themselves, get up and down, walk, and use wheelchairs or walkers. RNs also monitor patients’ conditions and assess their vital signs, noting any physical or mental decline and reporting back to the doctor. In addition, they administer medications and other treatments and help patients manage common age-related conditions such as incontinence, sleep disturbances or loss of mobility. Place of work Gozo.
