Are you passionate about care and looking for flexible working with weekly pay and NHS pension scheme membership?

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (BCHC) is seeking to recruit Level 6 Bank District Nurses for flexible working opportunities in Birmingham via Temporary Staffing.

If you are a District Nurse with the relevant Specialist Practitioner Qualification, have the relevant skills and experience, and want to support us in providing Best Care: Healthy Communities, take a look at the variety of roles available within BCHC Temporary Staffing.
