We currently looking for a Mental Health Nursing Associate Band 4 (with professional registration) for our Rehabilitation Unit in Dorchester 

Glendinning  is a 9 bedded, mixed gender community rehab unit set on the Maiden Castle site within walking distance to town centre. The unit supports people who have chronic and disabling mental health problems that may be treatment resistant, often providing a stepping stone for those who have previously spent long periods in hospital.

This role requires a registered professional who is motivated, driven and passionate about developing an outstanding service for the individuals we serve.
