Due to recent expansion, we are seeking highly motivated Staff Nurses to join our acute nursing team on our newly opened 14-bed dedicated Acute Medical Ward at The Wellington Hospital—the UK’s largest private hospital, rated “Good” by the CQC. This ward supports our on-site Acute Admissions Unit, providing exceptional care to medical patients in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

Your role will also involve administering medications, assisting with diagnostic procedures, liaising with consultants and allied healthcare professionals, and supporting patients and their families throughout their hospital journey. Beyond direct patient care, you will contribute to the development and implementation of clinical policies and procedures, helping to maintain and enhance the high standards of care we uphold. Additionally, you will support research-based practice and take part in quality improvement initiatives to advance clinical excellence within the ward.  

At HCA UK, we care about what matters to you. We care that you want to deliver the very best care. We care that you want a fulfilling career with opportunities to grow.
