Job Details

Experienced first level Registered Adult or Mental Health Nurses required.

Aggressive? Or suffering from a mental health condition?

Uncooperative? Or lacking diabetes medication?

Substance misuser? Or suffering from a head injury?

This is where your detective skills really count.

When you’re a Custody Nurse Practitioner you need to call on all your clinical expertise to work out what’s wrong with detainees. It’s your decision that will determine the course of action. Plus, officers will be waiting for your assessment. Which makes this one of the most challenging – but also rewarding – clinical roles you can have.

Working in a Metropolitan Police Service Custody Suite, you’ll take responsibility for everything – from identifying appropriate interventions and collecting forensic samples, to maintaining complete and accurate records. So you need to be confident in your abilities and dedicated to providing the very highest standards of care.

In return, we offer a generous bonus scheme including £2,500 joining bonus, £2,500 bonus after one year’s service, and a £1,000 CPD allowance.

Come and see us on our stand at the RCNi Nursing Careers and Jobs Fair on 8th & 9th September at the Business Design Centre, Islington.

The MPS’s recruitment practices reflect our commitment to safeguarding the welfare of children and vulnerable adults. The MPS is an equal opportunities employer.

Company

Healthcare Practitioners play an essential role in ensuring detainees coming through police custody, have access to urgent and emergency care. No two days are the same; working as an independent clinician, you will see a range of people with medical, mental health, injuries and health conditions.

We offer a supported induction, professional development programme, opportunity for career progression and a generous recruitment & retention package.
