Boston, United States Lincolnshire Community Health Service NHS Trust Full time

Job summary

Lincolnshire Community Heath Service (LCHS) have an opportunity for a Registered Nurse to join their Boston Community Nursing Team.

Full time community Nurse post available. Student nurses qualifying this year, newly qualified nurses and those with little community nursing experience are also welcome to apply.

As a community staff nurse you will be required to work autonomously and as part of a team, delivering care to patients in their own homes, care homes and clinic settings. Successful candidates will be responsible for assessing care needs, and the planning, delivery and evaluation of nursing care using innovative evidence based practice.

Main duties of the job

Community nursing is exceptionally rewarding as it allows wonderful therapeutic relationships to be developed with patients in their own homes. Working in this capacity embodies the person centred care approach and allows patients to truly be at the centre of care delivery.

The skillset of a community nurse is vast and non-exhaustive requiring knowledge and expertise in a range of areas. Examples of interventions provided are wound management, continence care, palliative care, medication administration and long term condition management. Close working with the MDT (Social Workers, GP's and Allied Health Professionals) to ensure that patients care is effectively co-ordinated, demonstrates a positive impact on our patients.

Flexible working opportunities such as part-time working, compressed hours, job shares, and hybrid working models can help staff to balance their personal and work commitments. Arrangements can be put in place if it can be shown that the needs of the individual can be balanced with those of the service and the impact on other team members, enabling the Trust to recruit and retain skilled staff, raise staff morale, reduce absenteeism and respond to changing service needs more effectively.
