Bring your SANC registration and your ward experience to a private hospital surgical ward in Mamelodi that needs a steady pair of hands. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

• Report adverse events and near misses on the incident system the same day
• Supervise enrolled nurses and nursing assistants on your side of the ward
• Keep clinical notes clear, timed and signed for audits and legal records

• At least 1 year of post-community-service ward experience
• Solid knowledge of medication safety and the Nursing Act scope of practice

• Funded CPD points and in-house clinical training
• Paid SANC annual fees at some groups
