Job summary

Are you a Student Nurse looking for their first post within Medicine?Then look no further as here at East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust we can offer post qualification roles within a variety of specialisms within our Integrated Care team. We know your first post is critical to help embed all your learning and so have developed a 12 month preceptorship programme to help with this transition from student to a newly qualified health professional. We have many reasons that make us proud to work at ELHT and below is just a highlight of some of them

Main duties of the job

o Building on the development of our first dementia friendly ward in 2014 (C5), the dedication of staff on this ward, resulted in them being awarded the prestigious Quality Mark in 2015 based on reviews submitted by patients. Run by the Royal College of Psychiatrists, the Quality Mark was established to encourage hospital wards to become involved in improving the quality of essential care of older people and to recognise good care provision, as identified by patient feedback.So you can see why you need to think seriously about what working at East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust could do for your career. To make the process as simple as possible we suggest that you start to apply for a post, up to 6 months prior to completing your course. Clicking on the link below takes you to our online form. Complete this and you will then be invited to interview at our regular recruitment events. At this stage we will be seeing that you are suitable to join the trust and hopefully make you a conditional offer of a job with us. At the interview we will gather any preferences that you may have as regards your first post but we are conscious that with 6 months left of your course these could change. Therefore about 3 months before you qualify you will be asked to confirm your preferred area to work in. Once we have everyone's preferences we will then allocate accordingly. We work hard to make sure that you are happy with your first posting and are happy to consider rotational post also.
