Which provide frail elderly nursing care and dementia care for over 65s.

Both Motherwell and nearby Hamilton have shopping centres.

In return, you will receive the support of some of the most outstanding nurse leaders in the sector, market-leading rates of pay and almost limitless opportunity for career progression.
