"Working in PCNN is great - it is an MDT so lots of opportunity to develop your health knowledge and skills set. Casework is varied and interesting - every day is different, so you are never ever bored There is a culture of promoting EDI as well as CPD and individual development. If you want to work in a team that adopts the principle of person-centred working and best practice, then look no further" - Helen.

"I relocated from London to Sussex and was quite apprehensive as to taking a new role outside of London. But I now consider my move to West Sussex as a good move. This team has reassured me that I am not only an employee but I feel supported and able to develop and grow with a warm and friendly team" - Brian.
