Practice Nurse

The post holder will be responsible for meeting patients’ nursing care needs as identified, or where care has been transferred to you by a GP. This will usually be in surgery, but occasional visits outside of the surgery may also be required. Supported by your senior nurses within the practice, you will initiate and maintain health screening programmes and health promotion targets for identified areas of the practice population. You will be managing the nursing care of patients with chronic disease and employing recall systems suitable to the practice needs. This includes using the practice computer systems for input of information for recall and screening purposes. Accurate and efficient input of data, for the Jersey Quality Improvement Framework contract, is also required.
