Sexual Health Nurse

We have a great opportunity for a highly motivated, enthusiastic, committed and flexible Registered Nurse to join our Team at Crawley Hospital, West Sussex Integrated Sexual Health Service.

The successful candidate will be placed on a supportive and structured education and training pathway, centred on reflective supervision, clinical skills and research. We offer full training in Genito-Urinary Medicine and support with completing the FSRH Diploma in Contraception and Sexual Health. On completion of relevant competencies will progress to Band 6.

We would also be pleased to hear from you if you already have some Sexual Health experience and wish to develop your skills.

You will have substantial post registration experience at Band 5 and enjoy working as part of a team.

The unit is open 6 days a week so you will need to be flexible with your working hours and occasionally be prepared to travel across the region for training or meetings.

Crawley Sexual Health Department is part of the West Sussex Integrated Sexual Health Service which also has hub clinics in Worthing and Chichester as well as some spoke clinics across the region.

The post holder provides nursing advice and support to clients attending the Integrated Sexual Health Service, providing a comprehensive client centred service, which will give up to date, accurate evidence to provide and deliver factual and current information on all methods of contraception, sexual health, health promotion, health checks and other relevant services which will lead to empowering clients to make their own decision and appropriate choice.

At UHSussex, diversity is our strength, and we want you to feel included to help us always deliver Excellent Care Everywhere, as shown in our Outstanding for Caring CQC rating. Your uniqueness and experiences will be part of our creative and innovative community where everyone is encouraged to succeed. We have a range of staff networks to help break down barriers, and can offer a buddy to help new members settle in. We’re proud to be a Disability Confident Employer (Level 3) and a Veteran Aware Trust.
