Nurse roles in Merton
Nursing work in Merton comes in more shapes than most people expect. Protocol Healthcare Services recruits Registered Nurses for agency shifts and for permanent posts, and the right answer depends on what you want your week to look like rather than on what we have to fill.
Where the work is in Merton
St George's Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Wimbledon and Wimbledon Village, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. Merton Council commissions much of the care in the area, and St George's University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Wimbledon, Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon Park and South Wimbledon and out towards Raynes Park, Merton Park and Colliers Wood. SW19, SW20, CR4 and SM4 come up most often, and work extends through London.
The job day to day
- ✓ Supporting and supervising care and support staff on shift
- ✓ Accurate record keeping and handover
- ✓ 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
When you would work
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around Raynes Park work three or four shifts and keep the rest of the week their own. Most people settle into a handful of regular services, often within a few miles of Wimbledon Park.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Wimbledon Village is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
Before you apply
- ✓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
