Description

Woodlands Juvenile Justice Centre is part of the Youth Justice Agency for Northern Ireland and is the only custodial facility for children and young people remanded or sentenced by the courts. Woodlands has been designed as a centre of excellence within a secure environment, offering a wide range of services and support to help prevent young people from re-offending. It provides a safe, secure and stimulating environment for up to 48 boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 17. It also operates as a place of safety with respect to the Police and Criminal Evidence Order. The children and young people cared for within secure environments are often some of society’s most vulnerable. These are young people with high levels of complex needs, who become completely dependent on the system and those professionals who work within it. The YJA wish to engage a contractor to supply registered nurses for the provision of Nursing to staff the Healthcare department at the Juvenile Justice Centre (JJC). The Contract will be for an initial period of one year, with the option to extend for a further one year period. Please refer to the Specification for full details of the requirements.
