If successful in securing employment you will become part of a talented, passionate team of people who are committed to providing the best care and treatment to patients. No matter what your role is, you will be making a difference every day to the lives of patients, helping them to rehabilitate, thus ensuring safe transfer to appropriate lower levels of security. This is the Hospital’s principal aim.

In order to ensure individuals are able to come work with us, we ask candidates for evidence of eligibility to work in the UK – details of what is required can be found on the UK Government website https://www.gov.uk/prove-right-to-work. The State Hospital does not hold a sponsorship license for skilled workers at this time.
