Training Details
Training posts/bases will only be made available where a vacancy exists and can be accommodated within the ward establishment. All training posts will be identified centrally and agreed by the Director of Nursing in advance. As a result, successful candidates may be required to transfer to other wards or departments where the vacancies exist - these could be in either a community or hospital setting.
Candidates are asked to stress their preference of acute, community, and location within their application. Although every effort will be made to try and match these; this cannot be guaranteed as posts will be dependent upon organisational need and availability.
