Over the past several years, our team of committed and dynamic practitioners have developed the role of Surgical Care Practitioner from being just a job title to a well-defined, structured and respected career pathway.

We have challenged the boundaries of the conventional nursing role while ensuring all innovations are introduced safely and effectively. We’ve become expert practitioners within the field of cardiac surgery and we act as advisors for all members of the multidisciplinary team, offering support to both theatre nurses and junior doctors.

UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

At UHS we are committed to providing a flexible working environment. We believe that it benefits everyone if we achieve a positive work-life balance. Whether you are balancing family, study or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.

We’re proud to have been voted in the Top Five acute Trusts for our commitment to supporting our staff to achieve work-life balance.
