Staff Nurse-Tower D7- Oncology/Haematology Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Full-time

Here is the revised listing with all four Yoast issues fixed:

Staff nursing at the UAE’s largest tertiary hospital demands the highest level of professional accountability. This Staff Nurse role at Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City covers the full nursing process — assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Beyond clinical care, you lead junior staff, integrate research into practice, and contribute actively to quality improvement. You also supervise practical nurses, junior staff, and student nurses as a professional role model. If you hold a recognised nursing qualification and at least two years of post-qualification experience, this role matches your profile directly.

Key Responsibilities

• Collect and analyse patient assessment data covering physical, psychosocial, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual needs. Then use evidence-based techniques to determine nursing diagnoses and identify risks to patient safety.
• Develop individualised, culturally appropriate care plans with patients, families, and the healthcare team. Apply evidence-based practice throughout and update plans continuously based on patient response.
• Implement care plans using evidence-based interventions. Perform treatments and procedures per established protocols. Administer medications in line with SSMC policies without exception.
• Deliver health education matched to each patient’s condition and learning needs. Use teach-back methods to confirm understanding. Document all education completely in the patient health record.
• Provide comprehensive clinical handover at every care transition. Attend patient rounds and communicate condition changes to the attending team promptly. Keep all team members updated on care plan revisions.
• Integrate current research and evidence into daily practice. Participate in evidence-based practice projects and share findings with colleagues to advance nursing standards across the unit.
• Supervise practical nurses, junior staff, and student nurses on each shift. Coordinate delegated tasks, apply critical thinking in priority setting, and act as a resource for the wider team throughout.
• Act as a patient advocate at all times. Speak up about unsafe practices and disclose observed misconduct per organisational policy. Maintain a professional, therapeutic nurse-patient relationship consistently.
• Participate in shared decision-making processes that improve nursing practice and patient outcomes. In addition, pursue informal and formal leadership opportunities within the unit and wider organisation.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Nursing, or a two-year Nursing degree with registration as a Registered Nurse from Canada, USA, UK, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand, or Australia — plus a valid current national licence.
• Minimum two years of post-qualification clinical experience in a relevant setting. UAE nursing college graduates are exempt following internship completion.
• Valid Basic Life Support (BLS) certification, current at appointment.
• ACLS and PALS certifications relevant to your specialty are strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to apply evidence-based practice and contribute to quality improvement in a clinical setting.
• Strong supervisory and leadership skills. You coordinate delegated care and model professional nursing standards consistently.
• Excellent communication skills across documentation, handover, patient education, and multidisciplinary teamwork.
• Commitment to continuous professional development and the Professional Nurses Code of Conduct for Abu Dhabi and the UAE.

What You’ll Gain

• A staff nursing role within the UAE’s largest tertiary hospital — 742 beds, 18 operating theatres, a 26-bed NICU, and expertise across 44 specialties. As a result, your clinical exposure is broader and more complex than most UAE hospital environments offer.
• Active involvement in shared governance and evidence-based practice initiatives. Your contributions carry visibility and impact well beyond the bedside.
• A competitive, tax-free salary benchmarked at AED 9,000–14,000/month. The final figure reflects post-qualification experience, specialty background, and UAE licensing status.
• A professional environment where mentorship, continuing education, and leadership development are embedded in SSMC’s nursing model. Consequently, career progression here is structured rather than incidental.
