Calling all superheroes to Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust….
WE NEED YOU ON OUR STAFF BANK!!!!
If you are an enthusiastic and motivated nurse looking for new challenges, we would love to hear from you.
There are currently opportunities for experienced nurses to work on our Paediatric Units via our Staff Bank.
We currently employ paediatric nurses, adult nurses and learning disability nurses within our areas and are keen to expand and develop the workforce.
This is a valuable opportunity for keen, enthusiastic and hardworking individuals to join our team of dedicated nurses, doctors and allied health professionals who provide a first-class service to the children at both Maidstone Hospital and Tunbridge Wells Hospital.
We have a number of areas that you would be able to develop and grow your skills in - day surgery, ambulatory care, inpatient paediatrics, Neonatal level 2 care and paediatric emergency care. We can offer a pro-active learning environment as well as many supportive in-service learning opportunities and study days for all bank staff, including revalidation support for all trained staff.
If you are a nurse considering returning to practice - we also offer a pathway linked with local universities to enable you to achieve this ambition.
