      Job summary

      Do you have experience working in renal dialysis? Do you want to update your dialysis experience and earn extra income? Liverpool University Hospitals are looking for nurses with previous dialysis experience to join the nurse bank.

      You will be supported in updating dialysis competency knowledge and skills and have an opportunity to earn extra income, or the flexibility of working primarily on the nurse bank.

      Liverpool University Hospitals has satellite dialysis units at Aintree, Waterloo, Southport, Broadgreen, St Helens, Warrington and Halton hospitals and a dialysis unit on the Lower Ground Floor of the New Royal Liverpool hospital.

      Main duties of the job

      You will be supported in updating dialysis competency knowledge and skills and have an opportunity to earn extra income, or the flexibility of working primarily on the nurse bank.

The units are open Monday - Saturday and in addition to morning and afternoon dialysis treatment sessions Aintree, Southport, Waterloo, St Helens, Broadgreen and New Royal dialysis units have a twilight shift.

      Currently there are a small number of nurses with dialysis experience on the nurse bank and we wish to expand the number of dialysis trained nurses.

      You can choose to cover shifts in a specific dialysis.

  • About the company

      National Health Service (NHS) is the umbrella term for the publicly-funded healthcare systems of the United Kingdom (UK). The founding principles were that services should be comprehensive, universal and free at the point of delivery—a health service based on clinical need, not ability to pay. Each service provides a comprehensive range of health services, free at the point of use for people ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom apart from dental treatment and optical care.
