Currently our team consists of a Macmillan Clinical Nurse Specialist, Senior Sister chemotherapy and two Chemotherapy Sisters with Healthcare Assistant and Ward Clerk Support. We are expanding this team to support current patient needs and service demands. This is where you could fit in. If you would like to work in a dynamic, well-established but continually developing unit where the nursing and management teams support and encourage personal and professional development.

If you want to be respected, challenged, encouraged and nurtured in an exciting, welcoming new and dynamic unit come and join our team.
