College Surgery Partnership has a wide and varied team profile and our workforce ranges from GPs and nurses to administration posts; from paramedics to dispensers; and from secretaries to cleaners.

Why work for us?

Great Patient Care: We are focused on providing great patient care to our population. 

Diversity: We believe that people from different backgrounds, with different experiences, make our organisation better.  Just as our patients are diverse, we need to be too.  

Working in Collaboration: With our patients and in our teams

Experience: We have amazing team members who have a wealth of experience and knowledge and love supporting new employees

Ambition:  We get it right almost all of the time but, when we don’t, we learn from that experience and we improve because our ambition is to be the best we can be.

This new and exciting role is to support registered nurses to enable them to be able to focus on the more complex clinical care of patients.

You would provide wound care and dressings and to perform and record clinical observations such as blood pressure, temperature, respirations and pulse.  After undertaking additional training you would undertake childhood immunisations, flu vaccinations, ECGs. venepuncture and cervical cytology.  You would provide support during minor operations and advise patients on general healthcare, promoting self-management where appropriate, including signposting patients to personalised care colleagues, and local community and voluntary sector services. 

Whilst we would ideally like a registered Nursing Associate, who has undertaken and completed the two year foundation degree delivered by a Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) approved provider, we would consider those who were looking to train in this area.

College Surgery is a wonderful place to work and you will be located within a large and supportive nursing team providing services to our 18,000 patients. 

We are proud of our multiprofessional team including Advanced Nurse Practitioners, Nurse Practitioners, Occupational Therapist, Paramedic and Social Prescribing Link Workers working with GPs

We have a proactive approach to prevention and wellbeing with innovative Children and Young People's link workers and a Health Coach

We are a learning environment with quarterly Continuing Professional Development afternoons where medical and nursing students and GP trainees attend to learn together.

We have also been rated outstanding by the Care Quality Commission.
