Full job description

We are seeking a compassionate and skilled Community Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) Nurse or Allied Health Professional to lead our outpatient group interventions for individuals living with mild-to-moderate dementia.

Setting: Outpatient Community Clinics / Day Services
Target Patient Group: Adults living in the community with mild-to-moderate dementia
Position Type: Part-Time 7.3 hours p/week (Specify hours)

Key Responsibilities

Group Facilitation & Clinical Delivery

Lead CST Groups: Facilitate structured, 7-week evidence-based CST group cycles (14 themed sessions) for community-dwelling adults.
Tailor Activities: Adapt multi-sensory activities, word games, music, and current affairs discussions to match the cognitive abilities of the group.
Promote Connection: Foster a welcoming, non-judgmental atmosphere that reduces social isolation and encourages meaningful peer interaction.
Maintain Consistency: Establish a predictable, secure group routine to minimize anxiety and build participant confidence.

Assessment & Community Caseload Management

Screen Referrals: Evaluate community, GP, and memory clinic referrals to assess suitability for outpatient CST groups.
Track Outcomes: Perform baseline and post-programme cognitive, mood, and quality-of-life assessments using standardized tools.
Monitor Wellbeing: Watch for signs of physical decline, delirium, or caregiver burnout, making onward referrals when necessary.
Document Care: Maintain accurate, up-to-date clinical notes regarding patient attendance, engagement, and progression.

Family Support & Multidisciplinary Collaboration

Support Carers: Provide resources and education to family members, helping them extend cognitive stimulation techniques into the home.
Community Awareness: Act as an advocate for dementia-friendly community initiatives and promote the benefits of early psychosocial intervention.

Qualifications & Requirements

Education & Professional Licensure

Graduate Degree: Registered General (RGN)/Registered Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse (RPN) or Allied Health Professional (OT / Social Worker / Physiotherapist).
Active Registration: Current, valid registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) or equivalent regulatory body.

Experience & Specialised Training

Dementia Care: Minimum of 2 years of post-qualification experience working with older adults or community dementia services.
CST Certification: Certified training in Cognitive Stimulation Therapy facilitation is highly desirable (training will be provided to the ideal candidate).

Core Competencies

Communication: Masterful verbal and non-verbal communication skills adapted for individuals with progressive cognitive impairment.
Group Management: Proven ability to manage group dynamics, balance varying participation levels, and de-escalate responsive behaviours.
Independence: Strong organizational and time-management skills required to coordinate community outpatient clinics efficiently.

Full, clean driving licence required.
