Summary
Are you a Registered Qualified Nurse or Midwife who would you like the opportunity to be paid to train to become a Health Visitor and work within the 0-19 Early Help service?
This is a brilliant job for someone who enjoys working with children and families and is passionate about their health and wellbeing.
Starting September 2024, you will be employed by East Sussex Healthcare Trust (ESHT) as a vital part of one of our Hub teams to undertake a one-year full-time course or two-year part-time course to complete the MSc Specialist Community Public Health Nurse (SCPHN) training in Health Visiting at the University of Brighton.
You will have the opportunity to embed yourself within one of our Hubs, build strong team relationships and be very familiar with the 0-19 service.

This will lead to registration on Part 3 of the NMC Register. If unsuccessful you will remain as a Band 5 Community Staff Nurse within the Health Visiting service.
For 2024/25 Health Visiting Trainees, an attractive offer has been agreed that mileage will be paid from allocated base to university.
