Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CFT) is recruiting Staff Nurses to our newly developed Community and Assessment Treatment Unit (CATU) and Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC).

Patients are referred from home or the Emergency Department for timely assessment and treatment, helping to reduce waiting times and avoid unnecessary hospital admissions.

If you enjoy acute nursing and dynamic patient flow, this could be the role for you. With training and support, you will develop and use a range of nursing skills to assess and treat patients, helping them return home safely with the right support.
