NHS Shetland is committed to ensuring that everyone in Shetland can access high quality, affordable, safe and effective NHS oral health care services. We currently have an opportunity for two Student Dental Nurses to join the Public Dental Service, working in modern and well-equipped surgeries. This is an excellent opportunity to embark on a new career, working with friendly and supportive colleagues and dealing with a varied workload. Based in Lerwick or Brae, there will also be opportunities to provide cover in other locations.
Responsibilities:
1. Work towards the National Diploma in Dental Nursing, which will involve self-directed study in your own time as well as dedicated tutorials outside of normal working hours.
2. Demonstrate a flexible approach to work, good communication and teamwork skills, and the ability to work and remain calm under pressure.
Once you have qualified as a Registered Dental Nurse, your salary band will increase to Band 4 (current salary range £29,116 – £31,670 per annum). We expect Students to sit their examinations to become qualified within three years.
