If you’re looking for an exciting new challenge then why not come and join the Stem Cell Transplant/Apheresis Team in our new home in Waterfall House. In our new purpose built home within the Children’s Hospital we will be expanding our services and are looking for enthusiastic and motivated new staff to join our busy, friendly specialist team to make a difference to the lives of our patients and families. Our department is one of a kind in the UK; this role offers an excellent mix of developing clinical expertise and case load management.
Ideally you will be an experienced nurse with experience of caring for children, young people and families with malignancies, haematological disorders or critically ill. You may also have experience with extra-corporeal procedures or other invasive technologies. However we will consider applicants that have little or no haematology/oncology experience but do have band 5 or band 6 management experiences and you are willing to undertake the relevant specialist courses and training.
You will have the opportunity to learn extra-corporeal photopheresis (ECP), plasma and red cell exchanges among other procedures and how to prepare and support patients and families through stem cell and bone marrow transplants
We will support and encourage your on-going professional development.
If this is the opportunity you have been waiting for, we look forward to hearing from you.
Informal visits and enquires are welcome.
