Job description

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK, employing around 40,000 staff across various clinical and non-clinical roles.

To apply for this position, you must have a live pin with the NMC UK.

The shift pattern for this role is Monday – Thursday 08:00 – 17:30, Friday 08:00 – 14:30.

You will be a First Level Registered Nurse trained in General Nursing or Adult Nursing.

You will assess, plan, implement, and evaluate care, adhering to standards and protocols to deliver quality service. Support for expanding your knowledge and skills will be provided by departmental practice development staff. The ability to work independently and as part of an integrated team is required. Additionally, engagement in multi-site working within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde may be necessary to meet service needs.
