What might it look like to work here?
Stand by, we'll show you...
Working with us you’ll be part of a strong team, challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know.
Dorset HealthCare are currently seeking a Community Staff Nurse to join our vibrant and innovative Integrated Care Team in Purbeck, in the District and Community Nurse team in Wareham.
You would work alongside our experienced Community Nurse Teams helping to provide care needs to a high-quality standard of care for patients in their own homes.
We can be flexible with shift patterns as long as the service needs are met between hours of 08:00-20:00 with some attractive weekend enhanced pay.
We offer a structured induction programme, flexible working patterns and pastoral support. There are excellent learning and development opportunities, both in-house and through our links with local universities, plus the option of a preceptorship programme for newly qualified nurses to boost your skill development.
Employment in this post requires an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which the Trust will cover the cost of. Applicants who subscribe to the DBS update service are able to present a valid DBS certificate instead of requiring a new check.
Applications from candidates that require current Skilled worker sponsorship to work in the UK are unfortunately ineligible to apply for this position.
Main duties are to provide high-quality person-centred approach to care delivery which always considers people's safety, privacy, dignity whilst promoting and embodying the Trust’s values. Undertake assessment of patients, care needs, and develop programmes of care as part of the wider multi-disciplinary care team.
As a Community Staff Nurse, you would manage acute and chronic nursing needs, be able to develop strong, therapeutic relationships with your patients and work closely with community partners to achieve the best possible health outcomes.
You would be identifying care needs, monitoring patients’ conditions, recording observations and helping them develop their wellbeing care plans.
You’d be supporting people to maintain their wellbeing and independence, helping to avoid unnecessary admission to hospital as well as delivering exceptional end of life care including symptom management and help in identifying and achieving people’s preferences.
At Dorset HealthCare we’re on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We’re a dynamic, forward-looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.
We do things differently here – it’s one of the reasons the CQC rated us ‘outstanding’ in 2. It’s also why 95% of patients across our services say they have a good or very good experience of our services and 89% of staff feel they can really make a difference. Whether you’re looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.
Our 7,000-strong workforce is at the heart of what we do and our success is a testament to our brilliant people. We're all about building a workplace for the future, we believe in equal opportunities and we celebrate diversity. We’re an inclusive workplace, where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves.
Working with us you’ll be part of a strong team, challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know. And you’ll be working towards our vision to be better every day through excellence, compassion and expertise in all we do.
