Exciting Opportunity in District Nursing

We invite a qualified Band 6 nurse to join our District Nursing Team in Radcliffe, part of a supportive and experienced group in Bury. This role offers a chance to develop your clinical skills in a dynamic, integrated health and social care multidisciplinary team.

Supporting you from recruitment onward, you'll provide high-quality care, advice, and monitoring to patients and their families in community settings. Your responsibilities will include developing Integrated Neighbourhood Team (INT) initiatives aimed at preventing hospital admissions and facilitating timely discharges.

Working under the direction of the team leader, you’ll care for patients with both complex and non-complex needs, promoting their independence and self-management. Excellent communication skills are essential for collaborating effectively within the co-located health and social care teams.

You will deliver high levels of clinical competence, including thorough assessments of patients, and support the community District Nursing teams.

Role Responsibilities

As a District Nurse, you will visit patients in their homes, including residential facilities, to assess and create management plans for complex and acutely unwell patients. Your support will be crucial in delivering unscheduled nursing care.

Key Skills Required

The ideal candidate will possess strong organisational and assessment skills, with the ability to prioritise workloads based on patient needs.

Flexibility and Support

Our service operates 7 days a week, including bank holidays and weekends. Shift patterns can be negotiated to promote a healthy work-life balance.
