We’re looking for a Senior Staff Nurse to join our Cancer Nursing Team at the newly opened Harborne Hospital in Birmingham. The Harborne Hospital opened in January 2024 and is a brand new £100 million, purpose-built 50 bed, multi-speciality private facility. Located on the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham campus, the hospital has a deep clinical infrastructure, equipment and facilities and expert, experienced teams to deliver full clinical pathways across a mix of specialties and sub-specialties at all levels of complexity including Cardiology, Cancer and Complex Surgery. The Harborne Hospital is the 4th NHS partnership within this network, partnering with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Trust.
Working alongside an experienced nursing team, you’ll help assess, plan, deliver and evaluate high standards of specialist care while also being an advocate for the patient, ensuring all their medical, physical and emotional needs are met by communicating effectively with them and their families.
It’s a great opportunity to make a significant difference to the unit and its patients. In return, you’ll have the chance to build a career at the forefront of Cancer care. With access to groundbreaking treatments currently not licensed on the NHS and our own on-site lab and chemotherapy production unit, you’ll have all the tools you need to deliver truly exceptional levels of care for your patients in a modern, vibrant setting.
You’ll also have much more autonomy day-to-day. Our clinical teams are very nurse-led, so you’ll have more control over assessment and treatment decisions while having the support you need to develop your career into Sister or Matron roles, whether that’s through regular development sessions from external speakers or one of our many funded courses.
What you’ll bring:
* A current NMC Nurse registration
* Experience in Chemotherapy administration
* Post-registration experience within haematology or oncology setting.
* Wide and evidence-based knowledge of systemic anti-cancer treatments e.g. chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy etc. and the known and lesser-known side effects of these
