We are looking for a Band 5 Community Staff Nurse to join one of our well-established Community Nursing teams based at Hawkhurst Community Hospital, to support the development of this service. Being a well-established team, it can offer experience and knowledge to support own growth. The service operates seven days a week from 08:00 - 16:00, with occasional late shifts of 10:00 - 18:00 on a rotational basis. We are aware Hawkhurst appears distant to accessible routes, however, it can be easily accessible via A21. Travel times from areas of Hastings, Bexhill, Rye and Tonbridge of only 30 minutes! The team support patients from GP practices within the Weald PCN Primary Care Network (PCN). This PCN covers the Hawkhurst, Cranbrook, Staplehurst, Marden, Lamberhurst and Robertsbridge areas and surrounding villages. The teams provide nursing care to predominantly housebound patients where each team takes responsibility for a defined geographical patch, allowing good working relationships with local GPs, care homes, Social Services, voluntary organisations and other stakeholders. The Community Nurses provide local clinics for patients requiring their clinical skills. As the Community Staff Nurse, you are able to support a patient with nursing care delivery towards the aim of self-management. This is a highly rewarding role, and nurses are supported to achieve all the clinical skills required with local practice educators and extended training. Clinical areas are diverse, and include clinical skills for wound management care, end of life care, medicines administrations and IVs, bladder and bowel care, amongst other duties. Each team have two senior staff, therefore, these posts are suitable for those who are newly qualified or moving from an acute setting. Staff will be required to drive their own car and have a full, clean driving licence are able to claim mileage costs and access the NHS car lease provision, following their probationary period.
