You will receive extensive education and training from a team of experienced senior nurses and the Practice Based Educator.

With the exception of an on-call out of hour’s rota, the unit is open Monday to Saturday 7.30 am to 19.00 pm and is therefore ideal for candidates seeking a more friendly work pattern.

You will join a team where you will receive training and support to become a highly skilled practitioner, undertaking extended roles such as Nurse Consent, IV Cannulation, and ERCP.
We offer support and a friendly and caring environment in which to work and provide a large number of staff benefits, which you will find listed in the additional information link attached to the vacancy.
