Nurse roles in Runcorn
Nursing work in Runcorn 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.
Working around Runcorn
Halton Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Old Town and Higher Runcorn, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. Halton Borough Council commissions much of the care in the area, and Halton Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Old Town, Higher Runcorn, Weston and Weston Point and out towards Castlefields, Palacefields and Windmill Hill. Work extends across Cheshire.
A typical shift
- ✓ 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
Shifts and contracts
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around Castlefields 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 Weston.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Higher Runcorn is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
What you will need
- ✓The right to work in the UK
- ✓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)

We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Runcorn itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Work in Widnes and Warrington often suits the same people, so tell us how far you are willing to go.
