Job summary

Registered Nurse - Integrated Neighbourhood Team (Wound Healing Focus)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Registered Nurse to join the Integrated Neighbourhood Team (INT) at University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire NHS Trust.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary neighbourhood team, you will provide high-quality, evidence-based care to patients in their own homes, care homes and community clinic settings. You will be responsible for assessing, planning, delivering and evaluating care for patients with a range of acute, chronic and complex healthcare needs, promoting independence and supporting patients to remain safely within their own communities. A significant element of this role will involve supporting patients with wound healing needs, including lower limb ulceration, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, lymphovenous conditions and other complex wounds.
