Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust is looking for a Qualified Registered Nurse or a Student Nurse who has worked in an acute care environment to join Ward 37, a renal medicine team. This is a busy but rewarding post for someone who brings energy, commitment, and a conscientious approach to patient care.

The ward team is described as supportive, experienced, and patient-focused, with a strong emphasis on spending time with patients and families to help improve the quality of care. The role offers the chance to grow within a centre of excellence for clinical care and research.
