What are the benefits of working as a radiographer at Benenden Hospital?

As Benenden Hospital covers a wide range of healthcare specialities such as surgery, orthopaedics, neurology and cardiology, our job as Radiographers is very varied.

We perform a wide range of imaging examinations including general X-Ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound and theatres. All of these are performed within an extremely friendly and inclusive team of Radiographers and Radiology Department Assistants.

I've had the pleasure of working at Benenden Hospital for almost four years. I started as a Bank Driver, before moving to the Portering department. What makes Benenden Hospital such as rewarding place to work is the genuine camaraderie that exists in the team. We work well together towards a common goal: providing the best possible care for our patients and ensuring their journeys are as comfortable as can be.
