This full-time position involves a wide range of responsibilities including immunisations, wound care, and travel health advice. Ideal candidates will possess relevant experience and a commitment to ongoing professional development.
We are a modern, forward-thinking general practice operating across two well-established sites in Knebworth and South Stevenage, serving a diverse patient population in both suburban and semi-rural settings. We are looking to appoint a dedicated and compassionate practice nurse to join our friendly and supportive team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a qualified and experienced practice nurse to deliver high-quality care across a broad range of essential services. These include cervical screening, childhood and adult immunisations, wound care, contraception advice, travel health, and infection prevention and control.
You will work closely with GPs, HCAs, and the wider multidisciplinary team to ensure our patients receive safe, personalised care. We are proud to be a teaching and training practice, supporting GP registrars, medical students, nursing students, and other learners. We actively encourage professional development and continuous learning for all team members.

Key responsibilities include cervical screening, wound care (including suture removal and dressings), contraception advice, childhood and adult immunisations, travel health advice, and supporting infection prevention and control procedures.
The role involves working autonomously within the scope of professional practice while adhering to clinical protocols and national guidance.

The successful candidate will be expected to maintain up-to-date clinical competencies and participate in ongoing professional development supported by the practice.
