Senior Nurse - Diagnostic Imaging

We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic Senior nurse to join our highly skilled and motivated team in providing excellent care, whilst caring for patients undergoing interventional procedures and recovering within the department. The unique and varied nature of the specialty means there is always something new and interesting to learn as new procedures are developed and undertaken. We provide high quality patient focused care to outpatients and inpatients. So if you are dynamic and motivated, have excellent communication skills, experience in an acute setting, and would like a new challenge then this is the team for you! There are varied shifts worked with core hours between 08:00 and 19.00 Monday to Friday. However work patterns may change in the future as the service requirements change. The applicant is expected to be able to work across site within the Diagnostic Imaging Departments as necessary. Lead aprons are worn for several hours at a time for certain procedures and there is a certain amount of manual handling of patients, beds and trolleys.

We provide emergency and non-emergency services to the residents of East Surrey, North-East West Sussex, and South Croydon, including the major towns of Crawley, Horsham, Reigate and Redhill; a community of over 535,000 people. We provide acute and complex services and a range of outpatient, diagnostic services whilst Crawley Hospital and Horsham in West Sussex and Caterham Dene Hospital and Oxted Health Centre in Surrey provide less complex planned services.
