Job overview

We have an exciting future planned with our Modular Ward Transformation - We will be moving into a new unit where we will have specific areas designated for the appropriate patient need. We will incorporate our clinical Nurse Specialists into the areas. We currently work closely with our specialist nurses, who offer the Ward support, teaching and have an excellent patient rapport.

As we are expanding our bed base we may be in a position to transmit the fixed term contracts to permanent contracts.

Patients benefit from the support and guidance the staff offer and there is a high quality of care delivered to the patients.
