Clare - Imaging Manager

Image of Hospital

"Two things appealed to me about Nuffield: its reputation for being innovative and its use of new technology. What a lot of people don't realise is that Nuffield is the UK's leading health charity. We have no shareholders, so we reinvest any profit we make for our patients' benefit.

In Diagnostics, the company has installed £50 million of state-of-the-art imaging equipment including the latest in Wide Bore 1.5T MRI, 128 Slice CT, Cone Beam CT, X-ray, Ultrasound and PACS technology. I really appreciate that. It means I can give patients the very best quality care whilst, at the same time, increasing my experience and skills.

Nuffield is an incredibly friendly and supportive place to work. I know everyone by name, and they know me. There's such a great sense of camaraderie.

I also feel valued. I'm treated as a professional healthcare practitioner and rewarded for doing well. We have close working relationships with both managers and consultants. And, because of the high staff to patient ratio, I get to spend quality time with patients, which is what my job should be all about.

When I first joined Nuffield, I was looking for progression having just finished an NHS course. The role is much more varied than I originally expected. It's generalist but I get to work in specialist areas. The training is superb and there are always opportunities to learn new skills. I've really developed my management abilities here and I get to take responsibility for everything from budget control to people management to performance improvements."
