Children's Community Nurse

Children's Community Nurse

The closing date is 15 February 2026

We have an exciting job opportunity for a dedicated Band 6 Nurse to join our friendly and progressive Community Children's Nursing Team in Ealing.

We are looking for a full time (37.5 hours per week) post.

Our team is well-established and committed to providing compassionate, family-centered nursing care to children who are facing acute, complex, and long-term health conditions. We currently provide a 5-day service to children and their families living in Ealing Borough, supporting palliative and end-of-life care. Join us and become an integral part of our team.

We are looking for experienced, enthusiastic, and motivated individuals who are either a Band 5 or already in a Band 6 role. Whilst experience working in the community is preferred, it is not essential. We are interested in your skill set and what you can bring to our team.

Ultimately, we are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Children’s nurse. You will be a highly motivated independent practitioner, underpinned by a solid foundation in evidence-based nursing practices. In your capacity as a Band 6 Nurse, you will shoulder the responsibility of managing a diverse caseload, serving as a specialist resource in a defined clinical area, and actively contributing to the continuous enhancement of our Children’s Community Nursing team.

This is an opportunity to become part of a team that provides nursing care to children in a variety of community settings.

The Children’s Community Nursing Team provides clinical nursing care, training and support to children, young people (aged 0-19) and their carers at home or other community settings, enabling them to remain safely in the community and transition to adult services where appropriate.

Our team looks after the following children and young people in the community:

• Children with acute and short-term conditions
• Children with long term conditions
• Children with disabilities and complex conditions, including neonates
• Children with life-limiting and life-threatening illness, including palliative and end-of-life care.

As an organisation we value our employees, prioritise quality care, and offer a supportive and fulfilling work environment for healthcare professionals. We encourage personal development and are open to new ideas and innovation.

We are a well established team working closely with multi partners including health, social care, education and voluntary agencies.

Our team is diverse and sits within the wider Children’s Specialist Community Nursing Service (CSCNS) and work closely with other staff within the wider nursing services, our therapy colleagues and colleagues in education, social care and voluntary sector.

Job Summary:

Children’s Community Nurses work closely with the people who use our services. Families, friends and carers play an important role in the partnership and their feedback is valued regarding how people experience our services. Children’s Community Nurses are expected to be kind and responsive, but professional and informative and contribute to the quality of the services we provide by:

• Keeping the people who use our services as safe as possible through the use of sound clinical skills and effective risk assessments
• Ensuring the best possible clinical outcomes by using up-to-date skills and adhering to evidence-based policies and procedures
• Ensuring the people using our services have a good experience by respecting, empowering, and working in partnership with people throughout the care planning process

We believe that the best health care is delivered by multi-disciplinary teams working well together and in partnership with other teams and services to provide seamless care. Children’s Community Nurses work as part of a team and you will contribute to the success of the team by being an effective role model and supervising Health Care Support Workers, students, or other Band 5 nurses, to ensure they are working to the standards that the people using our services deserve.
