Job description

Practice Nurse (Long Term Conditions) - BrisDoc Healthcare Services

Job summary

We are seeking a pro-active candidate who will strive to deliver a high standard of patient care. The main duties of the role include Diabetes, CVD, Asthma, and COPD management.

Although we ideally would like an experienced Practice Nurse who is qualified and experienced in all the long-term conditions above, we welcome applications from nurses who may only have qualifications/experience in one of the specialties. A qualification in non-medical prescribing would be advantageous.

Previous applicants need not reapply. We reserve the right to close this vacancy once enough suitable applications have been received.

Main duties of the job

This autonomous, evidence-based, and patient-focused role will see the post holder cover clinical sessions for specific patient groups with long-term conditions. Forming part of a small, supportive, and established team, the post holder will play a crucial role in all aspects of nursing practice and can take lead responsibilities in areas of competency or interest.

The focus of the role is both the delivery of evidence-based practice for patients, sometimes with complex needs, presenting with long-term conditions and acute problems that occur because of their chronic disease, while ensuring the provision of preventative health care to the practice population.

Together with patients and their carers, the post holder will diagnose, provide specialist intervention, treatment, management, and referral to meet their needs. The post holder will also be enabled to deliver training and peer support to other members of the team as required.

While working autonomously and potentially in isolation, the post holder will work collaboratively with the wider clinical team (Nurses, Pharmacists, Paramedics, GPs, Consultants, Mental Health Practitioners, Operational Colleagues, and others) to support individual patients and the delivery of the right care first time.
