Locala Community Nursing teams work across Kirklees providing district nursing care for adult patients within their home including care homes. We provide a range of nursing care to patients who are housebound and unable to be supported within a clinic or practice.

The new Senior Nurse role is integral within our teams, delivering excellent nursing care whilst supporting colleagues with their practice and professional development.
As a NMC registered Nurse you will undertake the supervisory responsibilities to community colleagues under the guidance and support of the Community Nurse Team Leader, working as a multidisciplinary team providing adult community nursing services across the primary care network footprint.
At Locala we support flexible working, full-time and part-time hours working over a 7-day period.
