Job description

Your new role at Fieldbay is calling you!

We’d like to invite you to join our amazing team of professionals. Our Nurses (RGN's/RNLD's/RMN's) are caring and supportive people. We wouldn’t be the first to say it either. If you are kind, caring and compassionate, there for the people who live with us when they need you, and you do it with a smile on your face. If that’s you, then we are already a big fan.

Very few jobs have such an impact on people’s lives. And being the supportive human being you are, you’re ideally cut out to join us.

Driving is essential for this role as you will be required to travel between a variety of our homes within Fieldbay. You will be required to support at the following locations:

Tan Yr Allt Lodge, 14 Alltwen Hill, Pontardawe, SA8 3AB

Tan Yr Allt House, 16 Alltwen Hill, Pontardawe, SA8 3AB

Our aim is to maintain and where possible, improve the overall independence levels of the people we support, through rehabilitation (if appropriate), stimulation and social integration so everyone can live their best life. Of course, we also support individuals who are less able and ensure that everyone benefits from the highest standards of care and support during their time with us. If you are a clinician, looking for your next opportunity then we’d be delighted to meet with you!
