Norwich, United Kingdom Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust Full time

The West Norwich Neighbourhood Community Nursing Team are looking for an enthusiastic full time Band 4 Assistant Practitioner to join our friendly, supportive teams of nurses, health care assistants, assistant practitioners and nursing associates. You will be based at Norwich Community Hospital. The West Norwich Team covers the west side of Norwich including Costessy, Bowthorpe, Easton and Taverham.

The Community Nursing service treats patients in their own homes, including residential homes and supported living complexes. We also provide some services in a clinic setting including our leg ulcer clinic and catheter clinic.
1. To contribute to the delivery of care packages for patient with long term conditions, palliative care and rehabilitation needs for example, to achieve quality of life, and independence where possible.
2. To work within the integrated team to facilitate early discharge from hospital and inreach into inpatient unit.
3. To work within the integrated team to prevent unnecessary admission to hospital.
4. To work with all health care professionals, and statutory/non statutory agencies to provide a seamless, integrated service to our service users.

Norwich Place is working alongside its commissioners and local service providers as part of the Primary Care Network to develop community based services that support patients to remain at home and receive the services they require in an effective and co-ordinated way.

The workload requires a good range of clinical skills to be applied in managing our patients with varied health problems including diabetes management, traumatic and post-operative wound care, pressure ulcer prevention and management, catheter management, bowel care, palliative and end of life care.

Many of our patients will have complex multiple pathologies and so we aim to provide holistic, patient centred assessments and deliver individualised care.

Full training will be given to gain competency in the clinical skills required, as well as a comprehensive induction period.

You will demonstrate an understanding of the role of community nursing. NCH&C is committed to the development of future health clinicians and there will be an expectation that alongside their clinical responsibilities the Band 4 Registered Nursing Associate will support students and apprentices in the role of supervisor and eventually as an assessor. You will live, breathe and promote NCH&C’s Behaviour Framework.
