The Northwich Care Community has posts available ranging from 22.5 hours per week (3 days) to 37.5 hours per week (5 days) - we are looking for the right Community Staff Nurses to join our team!
This post requires effective communication and interpersonal skills and the ability to be adaptable, reliable and approachable. Are you patient focused, are you a team player, is community your passion - if this is you we would love to hear from you.
Our Community Nurse Teams are responsible for the assessment of nursing needs, implementation and evaluation of care/treatment and the delivery of high quality holistic care within patients' own home, residential care and within our catheter and leg ulcer clinics. You will be expected to support your peers, the team leader and the organisation in promoting the Trust's values and behaviours.
The hours of work are between 08:00 and 17:00, over 7 days.
You will need to be able to work independently, possess good time management and organizational skills, and be expected to be innovative and flexible to work in other areas if required to meet service needs.
Please note whilst the main base will be in Northwich with the Firdale Team, you may be required to work across the footprint of Central Cheshire Integrated Care Partnership.
