We are looking for a Band 6 paediatric nurse to work within our 7F Children’s wards at The Royal London Hospital.

7F specialise in Surgery, Trauma and Orthopaedics, providing a continuation of care service for children following surgery and long term chronic illness. Additionally, we are lucky enough to be one of a few centres offering spinal surgery to our patients, with our dedicated spinal team. We also have an enhanced monitoring bay that is working towards High Dependency status. This area looks after the sickest patients in the children’s hospital, and acts as an intermediary between the wards and the Paediatric Critical Care Unit. Across 7F, emphasis is placed on multi-disciplinary working to ensure holistic care of the highest quality.

These areas are part of a versatile and dynamic service and the post holder will have excellent communication skills and be adaptable. They will be keen to learn and develop new skills and knowledge through the availability of a variety of training opportunities whilst facilitating the learning needs of others. We currently have access to a wide range of university modules including the HDU course, Evidence Based Orthopaedic Care as well as the paediatric in house trauma study days and APLS.
