If you are passionate about public health, enjoy working with children, and want to build your clinical and safeguarding experience, we would love to hear from you.

* Work with well children in an upbeat, positive environment
* Gain experience in health promotion, safeguarding, and vaccination protocols
* Join a collaborative and capable team that values your input
* Ideal for newly qualified nurses or those looking for a change from ward-based roles
What We Offer
