An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and motivated Band 6 Nurse to join the Clinical Investigation Unit (CIU) at Royal Surrey County Hospital.

The CIU is a specialist outpatient unit delivering high-quality care for patients undergoing dynamic endocrine function tests and other specialist investigations and delivering lipid clinic services. This role is ideal for a nurse who enjoys autonomous practice, patient education, and working closely within a multidisciplinary team.

About You

•    Strong clinical skills and confidence working autonomously
•    Excellent communication and organisational skills
•    A commitment to delivering safe, compassionate, high-quality care
