do i have to work in the hospital as an army nurse?

Tori C.

Regimental Medical Officer

Hi Molly,

The career pathways of army nurses vary considerably. I can think of a couple of Army nursing officers who have not worked in a hospital, however they were nurses with experience in primary health care before the joined the Army.

I would recommend having a chat with the QARANC recruitment team about your options, unfortunately they are not currently available on this platform, but you can try contacting the AMS via telephone or social media https://www.army.mod.uk/who-we-are/corps-regiments-and-units/army-medical-services/
