Can you work as a support worker while being a registered nurse?
Hi
I am due to start my new job as a registered mental health nurse. I was wondering could I bank as a band 2 till I pass my perceptorship? The reason so I will be making about 800 less as a nurse sticking to full time hours as when I bank I do a lot of hours in the week and utilise enhancements.
I can’t find ANYTHING on the nmc. Most of the stuff online people’s opinions of it some saying you can or some saying you can’t but I can’t any official text from the NMC on this matter.
Also it will be a completely different trust to where I am working as a nurse.
