Job description

We are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate Nurse eager to develop your own knowledge and skills.

You will be based in a busy outpatient service with dedicated clinic rooms, minor operations, and treatment rooms.

• An interest and understanding of dermatology from a nursing background, either from a community or hospital setting.
• The willingness to undertake training within the specialty led by the existing team of nurses and doctors.
• Experience of patient-centered care in an outpatient setting.

What We Offer

• Training and development to give you the experience and skills to progress, run, and manage your own patients within clinics.
• The opportunity to attend dermatology specialist courses.
• The chance to work alongside existing surgical nurses and consultants to develop this as an area of expertise.
• Flexible working patterns to accommodate your life outside HHFT, which can be discussed at interview and reviewed annually as part of your appraisal.

Our vision is to provide outstanding care for every patient. Patient care is at the heart of what we do across our three sites: Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester, and Andover War Memorial Hospital. Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust serves a population of approximately 600,000 people across Hampshire and parts of West Berkshire.

Our cultural ambition is to foster a culture that places people at the heart of all we do, where everyone belongs, and where learning, improvement, and excellence thrive.

We provide specialist services to patients across the UK and internationally. We are one of only two centers in the UK treating pseudomyxoma peritonei (a rare abdominal cancer) and are leaders in tertiary liver and colorectal cancer.

The trust employs over 9,000 staff and has an annual turnover of more than £500 million. As a Foundation Trust, we are directly accountable to our members through the governors. The Council of Governors represents their constituencies and influences the future plans of the Foundation Trust.
