Are you an NMC Registered Nurse or are due to qualify and looking to take on an exciting opportunity within dialysis? Fancy a £3,000 sign on bonus, an extremely competitive salary and Saturday unsocial payment enhancements? Want to not have to not have to work nights or Sundays?

We have an exciting opportunity in our Hereford clinic for a nurse (or a nurse who is due to qualify) to work in dialysis. Working within dialysis gives an opportunity for you to specialise along with building patient relationships whilst making a real difference to our patient’s lives.

Diaverum offer a fantastic training platform to enable nurses to deliver excellent quality care. Nurses new to Diaverum will undergo a 12 week supernumery period where they will be trained to deliver the care required within the clinic. The training is led by our own Clinical leads who will continue to guide you throughout your career at Diaverum helping you to reach full potential and grow. You will be supported by a senior team structure and have a mentor within the clinic allocated to you.

At Diaverum our patient ratio is 1:4 giving you the required time to care for your patients holistically. The Hereford clinic is closed on Sundays and shifts cover Monday to Saturday 06:30am – 11pm or 6:30 - 6:30pm some days allowing you work life balance and flexibility.

As a nurse led unit Hereford pride themselves in the excellent care that they provide to our patients; and as they see the same patient group every week this ensures that they benefit from an excellent continuity of care.
