1 Purpose and accountability

Provide safe, person-centred nursing care within the professional field, registration, competence and assignment scope. Maintain current appropriate registration and comply with the applicable professional code. Be accountable for your decisions and seek timely supervision or assistance when a task exceeds your competence or authority.

2 Assessment planning delivery and review

Assess needs and risks, contribute to person-centred plans, deliver authorised nursing interventions and evaluate outcomes. Recognise deterioration and escalate through the local clinical/emergency route. Respect consent, capacity, dignity and individual communication needs and document the assessment, action and response.

3 Medicines and clinical procedures

Administer or manage medicines and undertake procedures only when authorised, competent and supported by local policy and lawful direction. Check identity, prescription and allergies as appropriate and escalate omissions, errors, adverse events and unclear instructions. Specialist devices or procedures require explicit competence and assignment authorisation.

4 Coordination supervision and records

Communicate effectively at handover, coordinate with the multidisciplinary team and delegate only to appropriately competent people with suitable supervision. Keep accurate contemporaneous records, protect confidentiality and report incidents, safeguarding concerns and risks through the correct route. Do not conceal errors or falsify records.

5 Requirements and working arrangements

The confirmed assignment specifies required experience, training, safeguarding suitability, work permission, occupational fitness, relevant registration, local induction, staffing context, breaks and urgent contacts. The hirer provides local supervision and equipment. NurseFlex verifies the supply requirements relevant to the role. This description does not authorise work outside the professional field or guarantee insurance cover.

6 Acknowledgement and changes

The worker and hirer confirm the role and any specialist duties before deployment. Material changes require a revised role/booking confirmation and the necessary suitability checks. Worker acknowledgement {{worker_acknowledgement}}. Hirer role approval {{hirer_role_approval}}.

Current pay and pricing guidance

New offers from 26 October 2026. Weekly payday is Friday. Existing signed terms and accepted assignments retain their recorded prices.

Staff gross hourly guide

RoleWeekday dayWeekday nightWeekendBank holiday
Nurse RGN or RMN£24.00£26.00£27.00£36.00
HCA£15.13£16.25£17.37£22.69
Support Worker£15.69£16.81£17.93£23.53

For new offers, advertised inclusive staff totals contain basic pay and a 12.07% holiday component only for evidenced eligible irregular-hours or part-year PAYE arrangements. Basic pay and holiday pay are itemised separately. The holiday component must not be added twice. Regular-hours and other accrued-holiday arrangements are paid for leave under their applicable terms; an illustrative inclusive guide is not all current shift cash. Staff gross figures are before employee tax, National Insurance and pension deductions. Weekly payday is Friday, subject to the agreed timesheet approval cut-off. Existing signed terms and accepted assignments are unchanged.

Weekday day basic rates: nurse £21.4152, HCA £13.50 and Support Worker £14.00. Payroll uses exact basic rates and rounds earnings and holiday for the pay period; rounded hourly components can differ by pennies.

Standard client hourly proposals

RoleWeekday dayWeekday nightWeekendBank holiday
Nurse RGN or RMN£34.32£36.68£37.86£48.48
HCA£21.85£23.18£24.50£30.78
Support Worker£22.51£23.84£25.16£31.77

Standard client figures are proposals until the facility, role, category, effective date and agreement are confirmed. They include the recorded holiday and employer NI/pension provisions plus the service fee. Employer-cost provisions are commercial estimates, not individual payroll deductions. VAT remains subject to the recorded supply assessment. Employer NI is a NurseFlex cost and must not be described as part of staff take-home pay. Accepted assignments retain their locked basic, holiday and client prices.

Bank holiday takes priority, then weekend, then weekday night or day. Weekday night is 20:00–07:00 Europe/London. Cross-boundary hours require the applicable agreed rates; premiums do not stack.

For an eligible nurse, 12 paid weekday hours produce £256.98 basic + £31.02 holiday = £288 gross before employee deductions. Unpaid breaks reduce paid hours.
