London is a very safe city, but as in any other big city, there are a few precautions to take. Some tips we can give you to feel safe in London:
- Use common sense
- Be cautious
- Stay alert
- Be aware of diversionary tactics
- Stay away from empty alleyways
Just take the usual precautions you would take in any other big city.
In terms of mental health vacancies, we prefer if you have some experience on the mental health ward, and the general level of clinical experience required is around 1 year. We have a campaign exclusively for Registered Nurses with experience in Mental Health who are yet to pass their IELTS/OET exam. If you are a Registered Nurse with experience in Mental Health simply send us your CV and passport to apply@neuprofessionals.com and we will be happy to offer you full support both on your English exam and interview preparation – Alternatively, to apply as a Registered Nurse with experience in Mental Health without IELTS/OET you can also fill in the form provided on the following link.
For Community nursing, is really a great opportunity to work within patient’s homes, supporting patients who have long term conditions, to try to avoid unnecessary hospital admissions, and providing quality care to your patients. There’s no need for your own transport because public transport in London is so great. If you are a homecare nurse, then this is the ideal slot for you because we will accept nurses who have been working and caring for patients in their own homes and also any nurse whose had experience working autonomously with patients in their own homes.
Yes, many Trusts often provide loans for season travel tickets. Commuting is not a problem because you get to travel outside of rush hour for nursing shifts!
In addition to basic pay, there is also extra pay for staff who work in high cost areas such as around London. Working as a nurse in London in our CapitalNurse programme you will be eligible for a high cost area supplement, and that depends on whether you are working in inner London, outer London or the fringe zones , but that can add a significant extra amount of money to your pay each month and each year. Your salary will also depend on your years of work experience.
No, it’s not possible. Once you sign up for your contract, we advise you to read your contract and your offer letter very carefully, you normally are within a contract with a Trust which has relocated you for the first three years; but that doesn’t mean you can’t move from ward to ward in the same Trust. That’s another great thing about the NHS, there are often opportunities for career advancement or for moving from one ward to a different ward within the same hospital Trust.
What you need to complete is the CBT test which is the Competency Based Test, part of the test of competence for the UK NMC (link to NMC CBT ), and if you want to be a Mental Health Nurse, we would prefer that you complete the Mental Health CBT test.
We strongly recommend that you travel alone in the first instance and bring your family over as dependants once you are settled in the U.K. The accommodation provided by the NHS Trusts for at least 1 month is for single occupancy. Unless you have family over or friends in the U.K. already who are happy to offer support, we recommend that you travel alone to start with. Furthermore, please be aware that during your first few weeks in the U.K. you’ll be getting ready for your OSCE exams, and this requires all of your attention (so having your family with you may be a bit of a distraction!).
Of course there are exemptions to the rules, so please discuss your personal situation with your allocated Recruitment Consultant and we will be happy to help you as much as we can.
IELTS UKVI is for Visa purposes only. To be able to register with the NMC and travel to the U.K. you need to pass the Academic IELTS at a score of 6.5 in Writing and 7 in Reading, Speaking and Listening or OET at a score of C+ in Writing and B in Reading, Speaking and Listening. It is not required that you pass any other English Language exams.
When you apply, you don’t need to have your CBT, we would prefer if you have booked your CBT, but you don’t have to pass your CBT to apply for vacancies.
We can’t guarantee you a specific one, but we can guarantee you that in all our Trusts you will have the opportunity to develop as a professional and grow easily.
All you need to do is send us your CV, your passport and you approved English Certificate certificate to apply@neuprofessionals.com
We are unable to accept applications from any of the countries on the NHS Employers’ Red List.
The minimum scores required by the NMC are:
- Academic IELTS at a score of 6.5 in Writing and 7 in Reading, Speaking and Listening.
- OET at a score of C+ in Writing and B in Reading, Speaking and Listening.
If you have an Academic IELTS score of 6.5 or an OET score of C+ in each subcategory, you may qualify to combine your scores with a second sitting. Please note that for this to be an option you need to sit the tests within six months of each other. For more detailed information please click here.
It’s important to remember that many people who work in Central London don’t live in Central London. You’ll find very affordable areas on the outskirts of London and there is really amazing transport links, so you can often commute into work within 20-30 minutes from an area on the outskirts of London. Some of our London Trusts actually stretch as far as Milton Kenes which is on the border of Northamptonshire, which is quite far from the center of London.
