Oxford, United Kingdom Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job overview

Are you a 3rd year nursing student or a newly qualified nurse who is passionate about delivering high quality nursing care to people in their own homes?

Would you like to get the best out of your professional role whilst enhancing or developing your core nursing skills to become a competent, autonomous practitioner?

If the answer is yes, then we want you to work with us.

Community nursing is a challenging and rewarding career, providing care for patients within their own homes and the community setting.

Main duties of the job

District nurses make a difference everyday to the lives of the people they visit at home and in residential care homes. They provide increasingly complex care for patients and support for family members.

You will visit patients in their own homes and provide a comprehensive range of clinical nursing activities. A key aspect of the role will involve working with the wider multidisciplinary team to help plan and deliver complex care to enable patients to remain in their home environment for as long as possible.

Working as part of an integrated locality team, you will work in partnership to reduce hospital admission and facilitate discharge by providing clinical holistic assessment and treatment.

You will promote optimal levels of independence and wellbeing for patients whilst facilitating teaching and support for formal and informal carers.

Working for our organisation

You will have access to the Oxford Health Flyer Programme designed to support and develop newly qualified nurses and allied health professionals (AHP)s.

It has been recognised as an exemplary programme for two consecutive years with Health Education England (HEE) awarding Oxford Health the Capital Nurse preceptorship quality mark 2020-2021. The trust is one of 24 to achieve the status and is the only organisation to do so outside of London.

The programme provides evidence-based support and guidance to all newly registered nurses and AHPs helping them make the transition from student to professional, growing their confidence as well as refining skills, values and behaviours.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

In the first-year, participants receive nine days’ training and support on topics such as leading care, patient safety and action learning. ‘Flyers’ have the option to accredit this year and gain 20 credits at Masters level via Oxford Brookes University.

The second year continues learning and professional development, with careers discussions to provide staff individualised career pathways.

Detailed job description and main responsibilities

Applicants must have a full valid driving licence and have access to a car for work. If necessary, adjustments can be considered in line with the Equality Act 2010. 

The service operates 7 days per week, 8am to 6.30pm. Full or part time (minimum 22.5 hours) roles are available.

Please see the job description and person specification attached to this advert for more information on the job role.
