Job overview

Our patients present with a wide range of respiratory conditions including COPD, asthma, lung cancer and pneumonia. We care for patients with varied clinical needs including those with chest drains, tracheostomies and NIV (Non-Invasive Ventilation) and those requiring end of life care.
