The recruitment process wasn’t lengthy and I was informed of my application’s progress throughout. I learned a lot during their in-house training, as I took a short break from healthcare.

Great place to work. I love working here; the team are very friendly and always offer me work in my area. I love having the option of working in different care settings—one day a children's home, the next a private hospital. It keeps my days interesting.

Feel valued and enjoy working for company. Always daunting when starting a new job but office staff very professional no matter what query I've had; there's a variety of work available and their healthcare app is brilliant to book shifts and notify availability.
