Bank Level 5 Registered Nurse - Community Teams

Do you want to support the NHS in these unprecedented times?

Are you passionate about care and looking for flexible working with weekly pay and NHS pension scheme membership?

Do you want the opportunity to work in a large, diverse organisation that promotes values of being Caring, Open, Respectful, Responsible and Inclusive?

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (BCHC) is seeking Level 5 Bank Community Nurses for flexible working opportunities in our Community Teams within Birmingham.

You will be joining a team in one of the largest Health and Social Care transformations in the country, delivering high quality care to patients within their own homes and/or other community settings, preventing avoidable hospital admissions and facilitating early hospital discharge.

A full driving licence and access to a car with business insurance is essential.

Health and social care professionals across Birmingham are working more closely than ever before to help older people and others with complex needs to recover faster and live healthier and more independent lives in their homes.

The results speak for themselves. More people are back in their own homes living more independently. More people are avoiding hospital admission and more people are recovering from a crisis faster.

Community Teams work with a variety of disciplines within the multidisciplinary team to achieve the best outcomes for patients to ensure their independence and wellbeing.

Our Teams carry out a variety of nursing duties including assessment and care planning and relevant referrals as part of the patient’s holistic care of health needs, particularly in the areas of personal care, catheter care, bowel care, pressure area care, palliative care, wound management, diabetes and other long term conditions.

You will work as part of an experienced team; however, due to the nature of community working you will work as an autonomous practitioner within the community; this may include home visits or seeing patients in clinic settings.

BCHC provides high quality community and specialist services within Birmingham and the West Midlands. We deliver over 100 clinical services, out in people’s homes and in over 200 healthcare settings for adults, children, people with learning disabilities, those with rehabilitation needs and also dental services. One of our key objectives is to be ‘a great place to work’ enabling everyone within the organisation to be the best that they can be.

Please ensure you check your Trac account regularly as this is how we will communicate with you during the shortlisting and selection process.

Also ensure all sections of the application form are completed fully; particularly that you provide full details of all referees including business email address, telephone contact details and postal address.
