Summary


Are you looking for an exciting new challenge to take the next step in your career? Then come and join our friendly, motivated and supportive Recovery team.

Collectively we work across 3 recovery areas including, The Sandringham Unit, Main Theatres and the Central Delivery Suite. What's more exciting is that in 2023 the main recovery was refurbished and modernised to include its own separate Paediatric Recovery Unit.



As a team we are responsible for the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of our patient’s care, including nurse-led discharge when required. We care for patients of all specialities including ENT, Orthopaedic, General, Urology, Laparoscopic, Gynaecology, Obstetrics, Trauma, HDU and Paediatrics, no two days are ever the same

Our unit is dynamic, fast-paced and busy therefore excellent communication and organisational skills are essential.

The successful applicant will be given full training to ensure competencies are met, you will also benefit from a one to one mentor and department PDN.

If this sound like its for you and you believe you have the attributes required for the post feel free to contact Sister Nicola Smith (01553 613740), for an informal visit.

There’s never been a more exciting time to join TeamQEH. We’re working on a once in a generation opportunity to build a new state-of-the-art hospital to open in 2030 and we are also carrying out on one of the biggest pieces of digital transformation work we’ve ever undertaken.

Our new electronic patient record (EPR) will replace paper-based patient records from 2026 and will lead to better, safer, joined-up care at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and beyond.

At The QEH we provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community-based services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, North Cambs and South Lincs.

We are an ambitious organisation that upholds our values of kindness, wellness and fairness. We strive for continuous quality improvement, recently demonstrated in our 2024 CQC maternity inspection rating our services as ‘Good’, and we are proud to be a place to learn and grow through recognised learning and apprenticeships.

We recognise and reward our 4,000 staff and volunteers, priding ourselves on a community atmosphere and positive team spirit. We have approx. 530 beds across 33 wards and have newly built education and training facilities, a range of modern award-winning centres alongside a talented team of people ready to give you a warm welcome. We love working here and think you will too.
