We are looking for exceptional individuals to join our team as Nursing Assistants on Nutfield Ward.  Whilst previous care experience would be an advantage, what is more important is that you can demonstrate an empathetic, caring and proactive approach and have experience of working with people.

These positions provide an opportunity for individuals who are interested in moving into a frontline hospital care role, delivering the highest quality of person-centred nursing care for our patients.

Training will be provided and successful candidates will complete the care certificate, and have the opportunity to apply for a level 3 care qualification in the future.
