There are many Contract Care Nursing Agencies in the UK with good reputations as suppliers of kind, caring and highly qualified nurses. Many agencies offer good rates of pay, holiday pay; travelling allowances, double pay for bank and public holidays, training and study days, free uniforms and bonuses for referring friends who are nurses.
Some Contract Care Nursing Agencies have agreements with hospitals, nursing homes and other health care facilities to contract for nurses to provide care in specialised units. Among these healthcare facilities are both National Health Services and private hospitals. Contracts are available for surgical scrub nurses, floor nurses and intensive care unit nurses.
Agencies are actively seeking nurses to provide specialised care in hospitals, nursing home and rehabilitation units for the physically handicapped, brain injured and drug and alcohol abuse. There is a great need for nurses to provide holiday and respite care in residential homes for families caring for ill and aged relatives. There are positions available in just about every area of nursing care across the UK.
Nurses registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council can find a wide variety of nursing contract jobs in the UK. Care Nursing Agencies registered with the Commission for Social Care require qualified staff to fill a wide variety of nursing care jobs. Some agencies can assist nurses to arrange for taking the Overseas Nursing Programme, which is required for anyone wanting contract nursing jobs in the UK. The course must be completed within twelve months of starting the programme.
