 “Working at Thornbury allows me to work with conscientious hardworking professionals, which is great. The nurse rates of pay are excellent too, and I can pick and choose the hours I want.” - Paediatric nurse (RNC) 

 “Absolutely fantastic company to work for. They really appreciate their workers, offer great rates of pay and really good training. I highly recommend!” - Healthcare assistant (HCA) 

I really enjoy working for Thornbury. They are very supportive and always offer plenty of shifts, as long as you don’t mind travelling. If you need to cancel a shift, they are fine about it, and equally if you can’t pick up a shift that someone else has cancelled, they don’t make you feel guilty and are equally pleased when you do pick up a shift.” - Specialist complex care nurse
