Sirona care & health currently recruit overseas nursing and therapy staff through an NHS Trust Supplier and we adhere to the NHSE Code of Practice in relation to applicants from Red List countries.
We are therefore, unable to accept any direct applications to this advert from candidates who are not already based in the UK.
This post is not an Advanced Practice role that is mapped to the HEE Multi-professional Framework for Advancing Practice.
These posts are currently under review within Sirona and are likely to undergo a name change in the near future.
This is because these roles do not require candidates to work across all 4 pillars of Advanced Practice to MSc level and are therefore banded at AFC Band 7.
They do, however require a skillset working at or towards MSc level in the Advanced Practice Clinical Pillar.
This role will not be eligible for training funding for a full MSc in Advanced Practice however training may be supported on an individual basis depending on service and individual learning needs, following Sirona CPD funding application processes.
Please contact Nikki Woodland or Alex Young to discuss this further before applying.
