Care services recruitment firm New Directions Health & Social Care is helping behavioural care provider The Priory Group to hire staff.

New Directions Health & Social Care is recruiting specialist support and nursing staff across England and Wales, in support of The Priory, which treats patients with specialist mental healthcare.

Sam Marriott, head of New Directions Health & Social Care, said: “The Priory Group has developed an unrivalled reputation for delivering real and long-lasting results to its patients over the years, so it is a real delight to have been identified as a key partner in supporting the continued provision of these highly esteemed services.

 “We are really pleased to be working with an organisation that is widely considered to be the leading provider of rehabilitation and other behavioural care services within the UK, and to be supporting the ongoing provision of services.

“We are now recruiting for nurses in all disciplines, care assistants, and support workers, including those in South Wales, the Southwest of England and the Midlands, as a result of this new agreement.

“We would therefore urge health and social care professionals who are based or able to work in the region, and with a passion for supporting others, to get in touch and help play a key role in promoting the continued health and wellbeing of thousands of people across the UK.”

In November, New Directions Health & Social Care expanded its services to offer short and long-term nursing placements and permanent nursing positions in private healthcare. It also operates a referral scheme in its nursing division, with benefits available to those who refer a care specialist to work with the company.
