Job summary

Radiology Nurse - Band 5

Full-time hours per week. Permanent post.

Are you ready to try a different aspect of nursing? An opportunity has arisen within Radiology at Royal Bolton Hospital for a motivated and enthusiastic registered nurse who would like to be part of an innovative, patient focussed pro-active team and develop new skills.

Whilst previous experience in supporting clinicians undertaking procedures is desirable, it is not essential. Your development is our priority and we will support you as you get to grips with our state-of-the-art technology and equipment, and wide range of procedures that are undertaken in radiology, such as Vascular Angiography/angioplasty and stenting, Embolisation, Hysterosalpingogram (HSG), Nephrostomy,Ultrasound and CT biopsy and drainages.

The Trust appreciates and values the contribution international nurses bring to the NHS. We also understand the support overseas nurses need to gain full registration once in the UK (via OSCE) and therefore we only recruit internationally to fill nursing vacancies when we can ensure support is in place. At this present time we aren't in a position to offer that support and therefore will not accept applications from overseas nurses who only have Part 1 NMC registration. If that position changes in future we will clearly advertise our opportunities for international nurses to join our nurse team here in Bolton. Thank you for your understanding.

Job description

Job responsibilities

Interventional Radiology (IR) is an ever expanding specialty offering the newest most up to date technologies within modern medicine. It is much less invasive than conventional treatments as most procedures are done through incisions less than 5mm. The team are often able to avoid general anaesthetic and can care for the patients with a combination of local anaesthetic and conscious sedation, provided by an adequately trained nurse. You will be admitting and caring for patients before, during and after invasive procedures, including scrubbing, circulating and recovery. You will also be providing general nursing care to patients across the department.
