Nurse roles in Cheltenham
If you are an NMC-registered nurse living in or near Cheltenham, we would like to hear from you. Protocol Healthcare Services supplies nurses to community and healthcare settings across the UK, on temporary contracts, permanent contracts, or a mix of the two while you work out what suits.
Working around Cheltenham
Cheltenham General Hospital is the hospital local teams work alongside, and the homes and services around Montpellier and Charlton Kings draw staff from the same pool. Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs services locally, with Gloucestershire County Council commissioning the social care alongside them.
Most placements are in Montpellier, Pittville and Charlton Kings, with regular work further out at Leckhampton, Prestbury and Lansdown. Postings run through GL50, GL51 and GL52, including out at Up Hatherley.
A typical shift
- ✓ Assessing, planning and reviewing care for the people you look after
- ✓ Medication administration and clinical observations
- ✓ Wound care, catheter care and other clinical tasks within your competence
- ✓ Working alongside GPs, district nurses and multidisciplinary teams
- ✓ Supporting and supervising care and support staff on shift
- ✓ Accurate record keeping and handover
Shifts and contracts
Days, nights and weekends are all available, full time or part time. Someone covering Prestbury on earlies and Lansdown on nights is an ordinary week here. The aim is ongoing work in settings you already know, not a different address every week between Montpellier and The Park.
Some people stay on agency indefinitely; others use a few months around Charlton Kings to find the right permanent home. Both are fine.
What you will need
- ✓Excellent clinical and communication skills
- ✓Experience in community, elderly or end-of-life care is desirable, but not essential
- ✓An enhanced DBS check, which we can arrange
- ✓Current registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC)
- ✓The right to work in the UK
How we work with you
You get one consultant who knows your registration, your patch and which Gloucestershire services you have already worked in. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Cheltenham itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Gloucester, Worcester and Swindon are close enough that plenty of our people work across them and Cheltenham both.
Let us know your hours and how far you will travel from Montpellier, and we will do the rest. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
