More than 20 job offers were made to people who attended Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust’s latest staff recruitment day for health services in Ludlow and Bishop’s Castle.

In total 30 people were interviewed for positions within the community, as well as the South Shropshire towns’ Minor Injuries Units and hospitals. In total, 21 posts were offered – of which 13 were permanent and eight were bank roles.

Roles varied from Ward and Community Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, Extended Nurse Practitioners and a Physio.

Holly Bowles, Clinical Services Manager for Ludlow and Bishop’s Castle Hospitals, said the event had been a “great success”.

She said: “I’m absolutely delighted that the recent recruitment day for Ludlow and Bishop’s Castle Hospitals was so successful.

“We’re really looking forward to having our new recruits on board as soon as we can. They will be helping us to deliver better and safer patient care.

“The interest shown by those living locally really emphasises the high regard our services are held within the community.”

Steve Gregory, Director of Nursing and Operations, said: “We were absolutely delighted with how our latest recruitment event went, and the number of people offered jobs certainly reaffirms that.

“We find these sort of events a fantastic way of meeting potential staff members face-to-face.”

He added: “We would also like to remind people that there are always new opportunities appearing at Shropcom if you check our NHS Jobs page regularly.”
