Job overview
We have an exciting opportunity for a band 5 Nurse to join our Fertility Nurses team. With support and training, competencies will be achieved. Experience in a Fertility or Women's health setting would be an advantage.
We are a small and friendly multi-disciplinary team, consisting of Nurses, Scientists, Administrative staff and Doctors, based at Severn Fields Health Village. We moved off site from the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital in June 2018 and benefit from working in relatively new, comfortable surroundings, designed for our speciality.
Main duties of the job
* To provide evidence based Nursing care to patients undertaking their Fertility journey.
* To prepare and support patients through fertility investigations and treatment, from referral to completion of treatment.
* The ideal candidate will have some fertility or gynaecology experience to build upon to achieve competencies. Phlebotomy and venepuncture skills are essential or to be willing to undertake training.
* The role involves working with a patient group who are receiving treatment which can be stressful, so a calm manner and empathetic approach is essential.
* The post holder will have to develop a good working knowledge of the HFEA.
Working for our organisation
Our Poppy’s Promise Commitment
We believe that compassionate care sits at the heart of everything we do. Every member of our team — clinical or non‑clinical — plays a vital role in ensuring that patients, families, and colleagues are treated with dignity, empathy, and respect at all times.
We expect all staff to demonstrate compassion not only through their words, but through their actions: by listening attentively, communicating clearly and kindly, and recognising individual needs, feelings, and circumstances of those in our care.
Effective communication is central to safe and high-quality healthcare. We value colleagues who take the time to understand others, explain information in a meaningful way, and respond to concerns with patience and understanding.
By joining our team, you are committing to uphold these values — ensuring that every patient feels heard, respected, and valued, and that compassion is embedded in every interaction, every day.
