We offer fantastic preceptorship programmes, clinical supervision, opportunities to learn specialist skills, funded training and development and rotations in most areas. All of this in an amazing NHS Trust that values and cares for its people.

As a newly registered nurse, above all we want you to enjoy your first nursing role. We recognise that it can feel a little overwhelming as you start out on your nursing career and that’s why we’ve developed an outstanding preceptorship programme to help get you settled and guide you through the first 12 months.  You’ll also be assigned a mentor, given a full induction and supernumerary period as well having access to professional nurse advocates who are specially trained to provide support in clinical practice.

Once you’ve found your feet, it’s only natural to start looking at progression and development opportunities. We’ll help you to build your skills and we’ll invest in your training and development, providing CPD, paid study leave and funding for further qualifications. If there is an area that you’re keen to learn more about, we’ll support rotational placements across most areas or help you to develop specialist skills to progress your career.

Every day you will make a huge difference to the lives of the people we care for, delivering a high standard of care alongside your colleagues. This could be within acute, tertiary referral or part of a range of community and specialist services across Northern and Eastern Devon providing plenty of scope and opportunities for an exciting and varied career.

Our teams are caring, compassionate and inclusive, so whatever your background, you will be made to feel very welcome.

About Us

Stretching across Northern, Eastern and Mid Devon, we have a workforce of over 15,000 staff, making us the largest employer in Devon. Our core services, which we provide to more than 615,000 people, cover more than 2,000 square miles across Devon, while some of our specialist services cover the whole of the peninsula, extending our reach as far as Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.

We deliver a wide range of emergency, specialist and general medical services through North Devon District Hospital and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Wonford). Alongside our two acute hospitals, we provide integrated health and social care services across a variety of settings, including community inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and within people’s own homes. We also offer primary care services, a range of specialist community services, and Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARC).

Our state-of-the-art equipment, leading technologies and strong links to local universities put us at the forefront of research and innovations, enabling us to provide world-class care to our local communities.

It has never been a more exciting time to join the Royal Devon, as you will help to shape our services as we continue along our integration journey.
