About Ward 37
Ward 37 is a busy 20-bed mixed surgical ward. We take general surgery, colorectal, urology, orthopaedics, ENT, and max-fax patients. We are the dedicated ward for rib fractures and surgical tracheostomies.
We specialise in post-operative care and ICU step-down care. You will develop a vast knowledge of surgical conditions, complex wound care, and the management of acutely unwell patients on ward 37.
About the Role
We are looking to recruit enthusiastic and committed Registered Nurses to join our team on Ward 37 at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary.
You will be responsible for the care of a team of patients each shift with the support of the nurse in charge and the clinical support workers. You will be expected to communicate effectively to ensure correct care and treatment for each patient.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Training will be provided both on the ward and through study days for specialist care such as tracheostomies and chest drain management.
