Job summary
Do you have experience in Enteral Nutrition, PEGs, Balloon gastrostomy tubes and Nasogastric Tubes and would like to join BCHC as a Bank Nutrition Nurse?

Do you want to enhance your nursing skills by lookingafter people with feeding tubes?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Bank Band 6 Nurse to join our well established, award-winning community enteral nutrition nurses' team.

We are looking for a motivated, dynamic and enthusiastic bank nutrition nurse to join our department.

Main duties of the job
This Bank role will work with patients alongside dietitians, community-based district nursing staff and our experienced Nutrition Nursing team to advise and support on all aspects of enteral feeding in adults.

The team liaises closely with acute units, enteral feeding companies, community hospitals and nursing homes in relation to home enteral feeding discharges, assessment for initiation of enteral feeding, direct patient care and staff training.
