The Role

This is a great time to join Virgin Care, with opportunities to help shape and implement the way in which the practice will run for the future.

  • providing services to meet the needs of the registered patients who attend the practice
  • delivering holistic health care for patients with undifferentiated and undiagnosed problems using advanced nursing skills
  • organising and developing nursing care services for the patients of the service
  • contributing to the provision of multidisciplinary education and training within the service, local training programmes and providing experiential learning opportunities, mentoring and clinical learning opportunities
