Professional Nurse (Theatre)

This is a registered nursing post at a private maternity unit in Boksburg, with your own patient load and a say in the care plan. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

• Report adverse events and near misses on the incident system the same day
• Do full patient assessments and update nursing care plans every shift
• Run emergency trolley checks and respond to cardiac arrest calls

• Medical aid and pension fund contributions after probation
• Funded CPD points and in-house clinical training
• Study support for post-basic specialities
