I have been working in nhs as hca for 2year . I got my pin in 2026 December after i went to maternity leave so its been almost 9 months that i haven’t started working as a nurse,i asked my ward manager if there is any vacancy and told me that there is non.so the problem is that if i left nhs i have to pay back my maternity leave allowance so i am thinking to return back to work in hca role for a while till i find a job as band 5; however as a nurse i can’t work as a hca and it will be year not working as a nurse its really stressing me So please give me some advice what i’m suppose to do.
