NHS Jobs • Bristol BS7 8PS

Registered Nurse or Paramedic

About this role

Our newly qualified Band 5 Practitioners are offered a structured offender healthcare development pathway, supported by a clear competency framework designed to promote both clinical and professional development within the prison healthcare environment. The pathway focuses on developing the specialist knowledge, skills and competencies required to work effectively in offender healthcare and to support progression into more senior roles as competencies are achieved. We welcome applications from both newly qualified and experienced registered healthcare professionals who are interested in developing a career in offender healthcare. Newly qualified practitioners will be supported through a structured prison healthcare preceptorship programme; however, applicants should be aware that this programme is specific to offender healthcare and does not replace or contribute towards profession-specific preceptorship or portfolio requirements, such as the Newly Qualified Paramedic (NQP) programme. Applicants should also note that this role is a Registered Healthcare Professional position within a prison healthcare setting rather than a profession-specific clinical role, and practice exposure may differ from that experienced in traditional healthcare settings.
