Be honest about your status and if you're passively or actively job searching. Be open about whether you are interviewing with other companies and if so, what stage of the interview process you are in and if you have any pending offers. This gives the interviewer a better idea of how seriously you're pursuing other opportunities, how soon you're looking to make a move, and how quickly they need to make a decision. If you are interviewing elsewhere but the NHS is your preferred employer, don't be afraid to share that information.

"I'm currently looking to make a move in the next 2-4 weeks and have been actively searching but have applied to only a handful of companies. I'm being very intentional in my current search as I look for a healthcare organisation to join that also aligns with my values. The NHS is my preferred employer of choice due to its size, stability, mission, and core values, and I'm very interested in discussing this opportunity further."
