If so, we are looking for highly motivated nurses who are passionate about the care of patients to join our well-established critical care team in delivering a 24/7 service. The post involves delivering excellent and individualised clinical care to our patients and their families, and you will be fully supported to achieve this through our comprehensive educational strategy.
