Nurse roles in St Albans
Protocol Healthcare Services is looking for dedicated, compassionate and professional Registered Nurses to work in and around St Albans. We place nurses on both agency and permanent contracts, so whether you want to pick up shifts around other commitments or move into a settled post, there is a route for you.
Working around St Albans
Work comes up near Fleetville, Marshalswick and Jersey Farm, much of it within reach of St Albans City Hospital. Between West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Hertfordshire County Council, most of what we staff around Bernards Heath sits under one of the two.
Shifts land right across the patch: Fleetville, Marshalswick and Jersey Farm one week, Bernards Heath, Sopwell and St Michael's the next. If you are based around AL1 or AL3, you are inside the area we cover most heavily.
A typical shift
- ✓ 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
- ✓ Assessing, planning and reviewing care for the people you look after
- ✓ Medication administration and clinical observations
Shifts and contracts
Full-time and part-time patterns both work. If St Michael's is easier for you to reach than Sandridge, say so and the rota follows it. Once you are established we keep the work regular rather than sporadic, usually in the same two or three services around Sandridge.
We recruit for temporary and permanent posts. Trying several settings between Fleetville and Bernards Heath first tends to make the permanent choice obvious.
What you will need
- ✓Current registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC)
- ✓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
How we work with you
We are a two-office team, not a call centre. The person booking your Hertfordshire shifts knows which settings suit you. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in St Albans itself, which we would rather say plainly.
If you can travel, there is steady work in Borehamwood, Watford and Bushey as well, and many people cover two of those alongside St Albans.
Tell us which parts of Hertfordshire you can reach and we will match you to what is open. There are immediate opportunities for suitable candidates. Call 020 8951 4510 or use the contact form.
