Coronary Care is a 14 bedded where we look after the acutely unwell cardiac patient. It is fast paced and can be challenging, but is also very rewarding.

You will be supported by a caring and forward thinking team, where ward clerks within the unit will be happy to support you with any queries.

Some of our patients can be challenging, as can some relatives but you will be assisted to gain knowledge to help, and support as needed.

A calm manner is essential, but team members will support when needed.

There will be an expectation for this role to work across cardiology to cover annual leave and sickness.
