We are looking for a Staff Nurse to work at Llandovery Community Hospital providing rehabilitation and palliative care to patients from the area, under GP direction and to patients further afield under the care of a Consultant.
Llandovery Hospital has 15 inpatient beds, an outpatient department and works closely with General Practitioners and a Consultant Doctor from Glangwili General Hospital. It is a tight knit group of dedicated staff, who, due to its rural aspect, have honed their skills at collaborative working and can work outside the box when needed. We welcome new members of staff and look forward to utilising their skills in order to enhance patient care.
