We could offer you a chance to develop and gain experience in a wide variety of work, along with opportunities to develop clinical decision making, as there are a number of hospital options to consider when managing your patients, including two Major Trauma Centres, as well as several cardiac and stroke centres. The NE node is a welcoming, friendly area. With close links to London, this area could offer you what you are looking for! We can also help support and fund the C1 practical for you but ask that you have your provisional C1 entitlement on your licence when you apply, and that you have completed your theory and hazard perception tests during the recruitment process.
