MCHFT's Victoria Infirmary Outpatients department is renowned for its commitment to excellence.
We are looking for a dynamic and dedicated Band 5 RGN to be a valuable asset to our team. This role offers the chance to work alongside skilled professionals, providing exceptional care to our patients. Additionally, you will have the exciting opportunity to assist in minor operations and dermatology clinics alongside our clinicians predominantly on weekends. While previous dermatology knowledge and skills are desirable, they are not essential, as we believe in providing training and growth opportunities to our team members.
The successful candidate will be expected to primarily work in Outpatients at Victoria Infirmary but would need to be able work at Main Outpatients Department Leighton Hospital, if and when required.

During the Coronavirus pandemic, the Trust was recognised nationally for its 'Be Safe Be EquiPPEd' campaign, which aimed to make the Trust as safe as possible for staff and patients, through supporting the correct use of PPE. The results in the 2020 national NHS Staff Survey showed improvements in all elements of the safety culture theme, with 92% of respondents feeling their role made a difference to our patients.
