As part of Guy's and St Thomas's NHS Foundation Trust, Evelina London is there for children, young people & women from London to South East England and provides specialist care for families around the UK and across the world.
Every year, the number of children and young people Evelina London cares for, in our hospitals and throughout our local community, continues to grow. We support families from pre-conception, before birth, throughout childhood and into adult life.
Right in the heart of vibrant London, we benefit from excellent transport links, we have staff working here from the local areas, spanning across London, and further afield into the home counties.
We strive to recruit and retain staff who are motivated to develop and learn with us as we continually strive to ensure that our services are of the highest quality, safe, and focused on women, children and their families.
We are seeking to recruit a dynamic and innovative nurse with experience and interest in paediatric sickle cell to a fixed-term clinical nurse specialist role, working across the network to ensure children receive timely stroke surveillance and treatment.
As a clinical nurse specialist you will be an integral part of the multi-disciplinary team working together to deliver this specialist service to children and families under the care of Evelina London across the South East network. This will involve travel across the region to local network hospitals, building relationships with network teams and delivering education and support.
