A Vacancy at Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust.
This vacancy is a great opportunity to join a great team on the bank working across all 3 East Sussex Urgent Care Units, based for the majority of the time at Lewes Urgent Treatment Centre, but including Uckfield and Crowborough Minor Injury Units.
We need Registered Nurses or Paramedics to join our established team who have a post registration Practitioner qualification & experience in Urgent Care & who are able to work autonomously, adapt to a fast paced, progressive service & provide excellent clinical care to their patients.
In return you will work in a supportive environment where your colleagues are a professional team, patients truly appreciate the service they can access close to home & for a Trust committed to staff development, well-being & engagement.
This role covers the Sussex Community Foundation Trust Urgent Care and MIU Units. The post holder will work within local, national & NICE guidelines to triage, assess, and treat patients attending the Units. NHSE is continuing to lead on the transformation of a variety of services into Urgent Treatment Centres although currently our Minor Injury Units remain. The post holder will provide assessments for patients presenting to the Units with either an injury or illness. This means that an existing qualification is required in either illness or injury.
This post involves both sound, autonomous clinical assessment & treatment skills & the knowledge of where to re-direct inappropriate attendances, ensuring patients are transferred safely according to their presenting condition. The Post holder will be integral to the team and contribute to the overall running of the Units which includes the management of other staff working within the Unit, support with education or training needs and daily supervision.
We are the main provider of NHS community services across East and West Sussex, with 6,000 staff serving 1.3 million people. We deliver essential care to adults and children, helping them manage their health, avoid hospital admissions, and reduce hospital stays.
Our Trust vision is to provide excellent care at the heart of the community. We offer opportunities across medical, clinical, support, and corporate services.

• Flexible working options: part-time, flexi-time, annualised hours, and flexi-retirement
• Excellent training, development, and research opportunities
• Cost-effective workplace nurseries in Crawley, Hove, and Brighton
• Active EMBRACE, Disability & Wellbeing, LGBTQIA+, and Religion & Belief networks
• Level 3 Disability Confident Leader and Veteran Aware Trust
• Beautiful Sussex location near the South Downs and coast
Our values—Compassionate Care, Working Together, Achieving Ambitions, Delivering Excellence—guide everything we do.
We embrace diversity and encourage applications from all backgrounds, particularly from ethnically diverse, disabled, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. We aim to create an inclusive environment and support reasonable adjustments during recruitment.
