Occupational Health Nurses

We have been serving the UK’s occupational health nurses for over 20 years. From a fledgeling profession to today’s multi-million pound industry we have evolved to match its growing demands.

If you are an occupational health worker then here are just a few of the areas we can assist you in your work:

School Nurses

At one point every school in the UK would have on site provision of nursing staff, helping manage pupil health and provide immediate first aid provision. Nowadays this provision is not as widespread but in many large school, higher education organisations and private/boarding schools staff nurses can still be found. Indeed, Kays works with private day and boarding schools up and down the UK providing medical supplies and equipment in addition to first aid supplies and training.
