At Danone, we're on a mission to bring health through food to as many people as possible. With over a century of pioneering nutritional solutions, we've transformed millions of lives worldwide.

As a Nutricia Homeward Nurse, you’ll provide care for patients who are being tube-fed in their own homes. You’ll build strong relationships with carers & healthcare professionals, including dietitians, GPs, and local nurses.

This field-based position supports a mixture of Adult & Paediatric patients within East Suffolk & North Essex (Colchester & Ipswich areas). Managed across a team of five Nurses.

You’ll also need a full UK Driving License; we’ll provide a company car, fuel card, and a lunch allowance when you’re in the field.

Role Focus:

1. To develop and deliver comprehensive training to patients, carers, and HCPs to support safe discharges from the hospital, as well as ongoing training for quality care at home.
2. Complete regular patient reviews and be on hand to support with questions, issues, and troubleshooting requests.
3. To assist in preventing unnecessary hospital stays, including tube changes within the Community.

About you

You'll play a pivotal role in nurturing patient & HCP relationships. In return, we offer exciting projects and professional development opportunities for growth, including supporting your Nursing & Midwifery Council re-validation and RCN membership.

We’d love to see you demonstrate:

1. Your ability to work independently, whilst effectively managing your diary.
2. Your clear understanding of the UK Healthcare Market, including the NHS.
3. How you’ve used your excellent communication skills with internal and external stakeholders, including patients and HCPs.
