About Croydon Health Services:
Croydon Health Services NHS Trust provides hospital and community services from a number of community and specialist clinics throughout Croydon. The Trust was formed on 1st August 2010 through the integration of Croydon Community Health Services and Mayday Healthcare NHS Trust. Around 4,100 staff provide services for a population of over 360,000 people who are relatively young with a high level of ethnic diversity.
Our main hospital site, Croydon University Hospital, is one of the busiest in London. We’re also leading the way in providing more healthcare outside hospitals at clinics, specialist centres, and in people’s homes. Our experienced district nursing teams, Allied Health Professionals, and community matrons look after people of all ages across Croydon.
Across the NHS, everyone is working hard to meet growing demand, and we’re no exception. With the right people on board, we are rising to this challenge, putting our people in the driving seat, encouraging innovation, and transforming our services to give local people the quality of care they deserve. Croydon Health Services places a great deal of importance on education and training throughout the careers of all our staff.
If you want the opportunity to have a real impact, challenge yourself, and be part of an NHS Trust that’s making a real difference, then a career at Croydon Health Services could be just what you’re looking for. #J-18808-Ljbffr
