Roaming Nurse

We’re pleased to share that our Roaming Nurse program has been extended for an additional 12 months!

Originally launched in June to provide extra support to our UC and GP services through the challenging winter period, the program has proven to be a great success. Due to its positive impact, we are continuing the initiative for another year.

While several of our current Roaming Nurses will be staying on, we have additional shifts to fill and are now seeking passionate, flexible and reliable nurses to join the program. This is a great opportunity to work across multiple clinics and make a meaningful contribution where it’s needed most.
