We are looking for Community Staff Nurses to join our dynamic, friendly team who are patient focused and thrive on providing quality care.

The Community Nurse role requires highly skilled procedures such as PICC lines/IVs, which are key to delivering excellent care.

You will be required to work the following shifts:

• 8:15am - 4:15pm

Weekend work is also required for this role.

Applicants should have a current driving licence and access to a vehicle to be considered for this position. Proposed start date: week commencing 26th January 2026.

We are currently undergoing an exciting period of change within our District Nursing service. Through a full review we have developed a new career pathway for Community Nurses wishing to progress into District Nursing. All community nurses start at Band 5 and, following successful completion of defined clinical and non clinical competencies, automatically progress to a Band 6 Senior Staff Nurse. From that point we offer the District Nursing course (subject to availability) and support further progression to a District Nursing qualification.

As a community provider, we also deliver specialist nursing services including Tissue Viability, Bladder and Bowel, Rapid Response and Nursing Rehabilitation units. This new pathway provides guidance and support to pursue the career pathway of your choice.

This is a challenging but ultimately rewarding position where you will be supported both within your teams and by regular reflection & professional training.
