Nurse roles in Yeovil
Nursing work in Yeovil 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.
Yeovil and the area we cover
Yeovil District Hospital anchors a good deal of the health provision around Preston Plucknett and Abbey Manor, and the settings we recruit for sit close to it. Somerset Council commissions much of the care in the area, and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust runs the clinical side.
We fill posts in Preston Plucknett, Abbey Manor, Houndstone and Pen Mill and out towards Hendford, Larkhill and Summerlands. Work extends across Somerset.
What you would be doing
- ✓ 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
- ✓ Assessing, planning and reviewing care for the people you look after
Shifts, and how they are booked
You set your availability. Plenty of the people we place around Hendford 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 Houndstone.
Agency and permanent are both on offer. Picking up shifts in two or three services around Abbey Manor is a low-risk way to find out where you want to be.
What we look for
- ✓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
- ✓Excellent clinical and communication skills
What we do for you
One consultant looks after you, knows the difference between the services in Preston Plucknett and Hendford, and is reachable when a shift throws something up. We recruit from our offices in Edgware and Bournemouth and place people nationwide; there is no branch in Yeovil itself, which we would rather say plainly.
Work in Dorchester and Taunton often suits the same people, so tell us how far you are willing to go.
