Ward 6C is now recruiting for an enthusiastic and motivated Staff Nurse to join their friendly and supportive nursing team.  Working in a 30 bedded ward that specialises in cardiology, endocrine, diabetes and general medicine, the successful candidate will be passionate about providing patients with the highest standards of care,  ideally have an interest in healthcare innovation, and be someone who is inspired to drive through changes in Daily Dynamic Discharge and patient flow.

NHS Highland is geographically the largest of the 14 regional boards of NHS Scotland, covering an area of 12,500 square miles, across Highland and Argyll & Bute.

As a board we strive to ensure the environment is conducive to nurturing a positive culture, supported and delivered through our NHS and Social Care values.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay.  This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff.  This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours.  However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week.  If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.
