An experienced, assertive and highly confident nurse is sought for this challenging position
This opening at the Hong Kong Baptist Hospital calls for a confident, assertive, and highly experienced senior nursing officer (operating theatre).
'The chance to be a senior nursing officer is a career hallmark, as promotions in the nursing field are slow. So this is a golden opportunity,' Amy Luk Siu-kuen, deputy chief nursing officer, said.
The growing private hospital which boasts 737 beds and 20,000 operations annually needs someone with more than 15 years' continuous post registration experience and at least eight years in management.
The candidate will look after daily operations in the operating theatre, from the meticulous task of checking labels on specimen bottles to ensuring that protocols and hospital policies are strictly followed.
'We hope everything is consistent and compliance is observed, because this concerns a patient's safety,' Ms Luk said.
This person will also have an administrative role. Aside from managing more than 120 people, the candidate will have to keep up to date on equipment maintenance issues and ensure the hospital has the most recent equipment.
