There is a dedicated in service training program, regular clinical and management supervisions, team meetings and a dedicated MDT. There are also opportunities for funded training to further develop clinical or leadership skills.

To support this service, we require an additional Band 7 Nurse/AHP. The position is part time (18.75 hours per week).
