Job description

Job responsibilities

Please join us on our recruitment open day for newly registered nurses - we would love to meet you in person!

More detail about the role

As a newly registered nurse, above all we want you to enjoy your first nursing role. We recognise that it can feel a little overwhelming as you start out on your nursing career and thats why weve developed an outstanding preceptorship programme to help get you settled and guide you through the first 12 months. Youll also be assigned a mentor, given a full induction and supernumerary period as well having access to professional nurse advocates who are specially trained to provide support in clinical practice.

Once youve found your feet, its only natural to start looking at progression and development opportunities. Well help you to build your skills and well invest in your training and development, providing CPD, paid study leave and funding for further qualifications. If there is an area that youre keen to learn more about, well support rotational placements across most areas or help you to develop specialist skills to progress your career.

Every day you will make a huge difference to the lives of the people we care for, delivering a high standard of care alongside your colleagues. This could be within acute, tertiary referral or part of a range of community and specialist services across Northern and Eastern Devon providing plenty of scope and opportunities for an exciting and varied career. This recruitment event is focusing on our East Devon services - we have a separate advert which focuses on our Northern Devon services.

Our teams are caring, compassionate and inclusive, so whatever your background, you will be made to feel very welcome.
