Main duties of the job

This is an opportunity for Registered Nurses to develop their career and skills within the imaging speciality to deliver the highest standards of care during specialist diagnostic investigations, interventional procedures and therapeutic interventions. The post consists of a variety of roles including working as a scrub assistant for sterile interventional procedures, circulating duties for recording patients observations, IV drug administration and managing patient care pre and post stages of treatment.

The service provides emergency services out of hours and successful applicants will be required to participate in the 24/7 on call service following completion of a competency based training package. We also cover cross site working; this means supporting the Alexandra Hospital and so successful applicants will need to be flexible with covering both sites.
