Job description

Registered Nurse (Care Home)
Cherry Blossom. An Allegra Care Home.

Our compassionate teams build meaningful relationships, supporting independence, dignity and wellbeing every day.
Join us and make a genuine difference in a caring, close-knit community.

Nursing that feels human again
If you’re a nurse already working in social care and want a role where kindness, teamwork and quality truly matter, Cherry Blossom could be the right next step.
We’re a welcoming care home in Peterborough providing dementia, nursing, residential, respite and palliative care. Our focus is simple: knowing our residents as individuals and supporting our staff to deliver care they can feel proud of.
The role
We’re looking for a Registered Nurse to join our day team, working 36 hours per week.
You’ll play a key clinical role on shift, delivering person-centred nursing care while supporting and guiding care colleagues. You’ll have the trust and autonomy to lead with confidence, backed by a supportive management team and a stable, experienced staff group.
You’ll need to be able to get to the home independently as our public transport links aren't brilliant.
Key responsibilities include:

• Completing clinical assessments and personalised care plans
• Leading by example and supporting colleagues on shift
• Ensuring care meets CQC standards and best practice
• Building positive relationships with residents and families

About you
You’ll be a Registered Nurse who values people as much as process.
You’ll bring:

• At least two years’ experience as a Registered Nurse
• Experience working with older people in a social care or healthcare setting
• A good understanding of CQC standards
• Confidence to lead, organise and make sound clinical decisions
• Strong communication and basic IT skills
• A flexible, team-focused approach

What we offer

• £23.79 per hour
• Paid NMC fees
• Paid breaks and handover time
• Free meals on shift
• Revalidation support
• 28 days annual leave (pro rata, incl. bank holidays)
• Recognition and long-service awards
• Career progression opportunities

Our values
At Cherry Blossom, we believe care should feel warm, personal and respectful. We support one another, celebrate the joy we find in everyday moments, and create an environment where residents and staff feel they belong. We value compassion, creativity and teamwork – and we genuinely look out for each other.
