This is an exciting opportunity for a Band 5 Staff Nurse post on Mulberry 3. Mulberry 3 is a 16 bedded Recovery Mental Health Ward.

Mulberry 3 is a 16-bed inpatient recovery ward based at Fulbourn Hospital, Cambridge Road, Fulbourn (CB21 5EF). It forms part of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust’s adult acute mental health inpatient services. The ward provides a safe and supportive environment for adults who require a longer period of hospital-based recovery before returning to community living. Patients are typically admitted to Mulberry 3 following treatment on another acute ward, when their clinical team determines that further support is needed to consolidate recovery and prepare for discharge. The ward supports people with complex or ongoing mental health needs who benefit from continued therapeutic input in a structured setting.
