Summary

CLCH is really proud of a new initiative for qualified nurses to develop a range of clinical skills across a number of nursing specialities with the introduction of a band 5 rotational scheme. This presents an exciting opportunity to work within community services in Hertfordshire.
Our vision is to provide great care closer to home, involving patients and their carers throughout care delivery. Within our services we support people often living with multiple long term conditions and with numbers expected to grow substantially, it is vital that the workforce is responsive to patient need. We will promote a supportive environment in order for successful candidates to increase their confidence in clinical care delivery, in order to become an autonomous practitioner.

The schemes aim to inspire future career paths available within adult community services. Placements are based across the four localities in the area; Watford and Three Rivers, St Albans and Harpenden, Dacorum and Hertsmere. Many of our services cover 7 days and your placements may include a variety of working patterns.
Successful applicants will be well supported through a comprehensive induction programme, a buddy scheme and receive mentorship from senior clinicians. You will have access to a variety of training opportunities delivered through CLCH Academy and be part of a wider support network who will support you in gaining a wide range of competencies. There will be a range of different opportunities on offer to develop your skills. At the end of the 2-year scheme, applicants can choose to continue to rotate within the band 5 scheme, or be supported to apply for progression posts, to continue your career journey.
