Ready to make a difference?

We are looking for nurses to join our Secure Inpatient Units at Southfield and Ravenswood House. Join our dedicated, forensic service today.

Southfield has 1 male and 1 female ward providing specialist care/treatment for people with serious mental illness in a secure environment who are detained under the Mental Health Act. Service Users are between 18 - 65 years old, may have committed a criminal offence or have challenging behaviour. The unit's main purpose is to assist Service Users to understand and manage their own mental health so where possible they can reintegrate back into the community.

Ravenswood House provides specialist care for patients with serious mental illness and/or personality disorders who need to receive their care in a secure environment. It is comprised of 3 medium secure wards and 2 low secure wards providing an innovative range of recovery based services . Most of our patients have either committed a criminal offence or have challenging behaviour and are admitted from high secure/local psychiatric hospitals, prisons and courts.

Applications are welcomed from RMN/ RNLD nurses with a passion for working with multi-disciplinary teams and who will possess excellent team working skills, be patient focused and embrace Trust values.

Applications are also welcomed from students/newly qualified nurses where we will provide full support and encouragement to develop your clinical skills.
