Nursing at Umbrella

Working for us

Here at Umbrella it’s not just our patients we invest in; we also invest in our people.

We have high standards and we want to deliver the best care for our patients, but we believe that enjoying your job is really important too. For us it’s all about team spirit, good communication and helping each other to make it easier to perform to the best of our abilities.

Our philosophy is that we should all go the “extra mile” for patients and colleagues. Therefore, we want to work with people who see it as part of their job to do their best and are eager to deliver the highest standards.

We believe it’s important to make people feel valued and cared about, whether they are our colleagues, our visitors or our patients. And we believe that having open, honest relationships is fundamental for building trust and fostering good working partnerships.

We offer all our staff the opportunity to improve their knowledge and skills through education and training and develop their career in a supportive environment.

Our service is part of University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham.
