As this is a community post, you must be able to travel to patients homes and clinic settings. Due to the rurality of Lincolnshire some areas are not well covered by public transport therefore having access to transport is essential. The service works through the hours of 8:00am to 6:30pm 7 days a week and is covered by variable shift patterns of Early shifts 8:00am -4:00pm and late shifts of 10:30am - 6:30pm. The Community Nursing service delivers a 12 week induction programme for all new staff. We also offer a robust preceptorship and clinical skills programme with an experienced clinical education team. This provides peer support in addition to the requisite training required to fulfil the role to its true potential. To find out more about the key responsibilities and the specific skills and experience you will need, you are encourage to look at the Job Description & Person Specification attachments under the Supporting Documents heading and refer back to these documents when completing your application. You should use your application form to show that you meet all or most of the essential criteria outlined in the person specification for the position. If you fail to demonstrate this in your answers, or you are unable to meet the criteria, it is unlikely you will be shortlisted for an interview for that post.
