Non-Permanent Bank Staff
The Trust operates its own extremely active non-permanent staff bank which provides excellent opportunities to gain a wide range of experience throughout all Directorates covering a wide range of specialties and roles:-
- Registered Nurses
- Midwives
- Health Care Assistants
- Admin and Clerical staff
- Health and Science Services
- Allied Health Professionals
If you have been qualified for six months or more and want to work in a specialty new to you, or where you have some previous experience, the Trust Bank can offer a wide range of experience before you make a commitment to become an employee in a permanent post.
Working via the bank provides a flexible and structured method of returning to nursing following a break or adaptation course allowing more time for you to make a decision about which area or Directorate is right for you.
If you are keen to work in a particular area where there are currently no vacancies, the Bank may be able to offer you the opportunity to work in that area to cover planned absence. This will allow you to gain experience that would stand you in good stead to apply for posts in the future.
Bank work allows you the freedom to work either in a supervised capacity or for more experienced nurses, there is sometimes the opportunity to take charge of a ward if you have the right qualifications or experience.
Bank staff have free access to all the Trust study days - it is simply a matter of booking a place and turning up on the day. Working as a member of the Bank also places you in an excellent position to access vacancy bulletins to know where and when vacancies arise, and can provide help and support to apply for a permanent position.
