Staff Nurse, Children's

We have a range of Band 5 positions across our expanding and reconfiguring Leicester Children’s Hospital.

The Children’s Hospital Reconfiguration Project is part of the £450 million investment received by Leicester Hospitals that has already relocated the Paediatric East Midlands Congenital Heart Centre and ECMO service from Glenfield Hospital to the Leicester Royal Infirmary (LRI) site.

We ae now entering the second phase which is to create a new age-appropriate and purpose built environment bringing together all paediatric services in a standalone and fully integrated Children’s Hospital at the LRI to serve the population of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland and the East Midlands network. There has never been a better time to join our team and be part of defining our children’s services now and for the future!

The children we care for are at the heart of everything we do. We recognise that delivering high quality care requires a culture of lifelong learning and development. With this in mind we have developed an extensive and exciting band five career pathway offering a number of exciting options to develop your Nursing career.

We are totally committed to helping you realise your potential. Whatever direction your career takes you we can support you to achieve it.

We have positions in our Children’s Cardiac Ward, Intensive Care Units, High Dependency Unit, General Medical and Surgical and Oncology Wards. By joining our team now, you will have the opportunity to be part of shaping children’s services in the future.

Newly qualified Nurses or experienced Nurses are invited to apply. Applicants will possess UK NMC registration or be on an approved university degree programme or an OSCE programme working towards UK NMC registration.

Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).

We Have Four Primary Goals

• high-quality care for all,
• being a great place to work,
• partnerships for impact, and
• research and education excellence
  
  

And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.

Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:

• we are compassionate,
• we are proud,
• we are inclusive, and
• we are one team
  
  

This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
