Trosolwg o'r swydd
An exciting opportunity has become available for a Community Staff Nurse to join the Bracknell Community Nursing Team.
Community nursing is evolving, with patients presenting with increasingly complex and acute needs. Our highly skilled team delivers specialist, evidence-based care to patients in their own homes, supporting them to remain independent and receive high-quality care in the community.
In this role, you will assess, support, and treat patients with a wide range of health needs, delivering compassionate and person-centred care.
We are a friendly, supportive team seeking motivated NMC registered nurse who are passionate about delivering excellent community-based care.
As a Community Staff Nurse, you will play a vital role in ensuring patients receive safe, effective, and high-quality care within their own homes.
No two days are the same in community nursing. You will work with patients with varied and complex needs, including wound care, long-term conditions, and end-of-life care, making a meaningful difference to patients and their families.
If you're passionate about community nursing and looking for a rewarding role in a highly rated NHS Trust, this position could be the perfect fit!
*This role requires you to have a full UK driving licence and either: access to a vehicle for work purposes, or the ability to travel to meet service needs (not all locations may be accessible by public transport).
