We are looking to recruit enthusiastic, motivated and dynamic nurses who can demonstrate commitment to the provision of high‑quality, person‑centred care.

You will be expected to work closely with the medical team and other agencies, including the Ambulance Service, to ensure safe, prompt and appropriate care delivery. You will be confident and have an understanding of the national targets for the delivery of Emergency Care.
This post is flexible, working to meet the needs of the patients and the department, under the instruction and supervision of the Senior Registered Nurse and Band 7 nurse. You will also support junior colleagues through on‑the‑job teaching and pastoral care.
