Description

Job summary
We are looking for a confident, compassionate and motivated Practice Nurse to join our friendly, forward-thinking nursing team. We are particularly interested in someone with experience in long-term condition management, especially type 2 diabetes, who enjoys the variety of general practice nursing and wants to keep developing their clinical expertise.

Your working pattern: let's make it work
We are ideally looking for someone for 28.5 hours, but that does not have to mean five days a week. We are happy to explore:
  • four longer days instead of five
  • compressed hours across fewer days
  • a mix of longer and shorter days
  • other patterns that suit both you and the practice

We are looking for the right nurse, not just someone who fits a traditional 9-to-5.

Main duties of the job
This is a varied general practice nursing role, including:
  • long-term condition management, particularly diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease
  • asthma and COPD reviews, where appropriately trained
  • cervical screening
  • adult and childhood immunisations
  • wound assessment and management
  • travel health and vaccinations, where appropriately trained
  • health promotion, prevention and screening
  • supporting patients with multiple long-term conditions
  • working closely with our GPs, pharmacists, healthcare assistants and wider multidisciplinary team

About us
Forest Health Group is a large, established GP practice caring for over 33,000 patients across three sites in Bracknell.

Nursing excellence is something we are especially proud of. With three Queen's Nurses in our practice, we have a strong culture of clinical leadership, professional development and a shared commitment to outstanding patient care. We support our nurses to grow, develop their clinical interests and feel valued for the expertise they bring.

We also know that being a Practice Nurse involves much more than seeing patients. That's why we have a dedicated nurse administration team. They help with clinic administration, follow-ups and other non-clinical tasks, so our nurses can concentrate on patient care.

Teamwork isn't just about clinical meetings, either. Our daily 11am coffee catch-ups on Teams are something of a tradition. They're a chance to connect, share a laugh and stay part of the team, whichever site you're working at.
