Nurses

Our nurses work in a range of inpatient and community settings, with a variety of individuals across the lifespan - from child and adolescent services, through to working age and older adult and dementia care. Mental Health and Learning Disability nurses work with individuals, their carers, and the wider multi-disciplinary team to assess, plan, deliver and evaluate care according to each individual's specific needs. 

Our nurses are skilled at establishing relationships with their service users to promote trusting, therapeutic relationships, and to advocate for their service users. Nurses often walk alongside their service users in the scariest of times, offering them hope, working with them to develop an understanding of their experiences and establish coping mechanisms to manage their distress. 

Each one of our 600 nurses is as valuable to us as the next. As well as the wealth of exclusive staff benefits available to nurses who choose to work with us, we feel passionately about supporting learning and development to enable our nurses to be the best they can be. 

We're very proud of the nurses we have working for us, and celebrating their achievements such as Lyndsay Khan, who won Mental Health Nurse of the Year at the British Journal of Nursing Awards 2020. Read Lyndsay's story here. 

All registered nurses who join one of our inpatient wards can also benefit from a welcome payment of £2,500 (paid in two instalments during year one) and £4,000 payment in lieu of relocation (to assist with commuting) or full relocation package.**
