Overview

At Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust, we believe in excellent care at the heart of the community. We encourage and expect all staff to actively promote and adhere to the Trust’s values in every aspect of their work.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Band 4 Nursing Associate to join our Barnet Integrated Community Service by providing a high quality service to our housebound patients by facilitating earlier hospital discharges and preventing unnecessary hospital admissions.

Our District Nursing teams work closely with specialist nurses and Drs, GPs, Therapists and Social Work teams in providing and facilitating collaborative support and care to patients and their families and in preventing avoidable hospital admissions. The community Nursing Associate role involves working as part of a multi-disciplinary team delivering clinical interventions under the supervision and guidance of qualified staff to patients living in their own homes.
