The work
General nursing is the broadest role in the profession, and the one every ward depends on.
As an RGN you can turn your hand to almost anything. A medical ward full of complex, elderly patients one week, a surgical ward of pre and post-op care the next, then a day unit or admissions ward after that. Medication rounds, wound care, IVs and fluids, escalating the patient whose numbers are quietly heading the wrong way. You hold the ward together, coordinate with every other discipline and keep patients safe, informed and comfortable.
It suits nurses who like variety and want their experience to open doors rather than narrow them. Agency RGN work gives you the widest choice of shifts of any specialism. Stay close to home or work across several hospitals, keep your general skills sharp, and build a working week that actually fits your life.
