As a Registrant, we know you have the core skills and knowledge base set already. This is your opportunity to put into practice that opportunity to fully experience what patient-centred care really feels like to deliver, and the positive impact this has on our housebound patients.
Our patient caseload offers you variety and can expand your personal development, equipping you with a much higher level of job satisfaction. In our team, everyone is important, everyone has a say, and everyone is valued.
In addition, the Seaton Community Nursing team has the added advantage of working closely with our Multi-Disciplinary Teams, including the Community Matron overseeing long-term conditions and complex care caseloads, and our Seaton Hospice at Home team, enabling us to have conversations and communication, ensuring we work together to achieve the same outcomes for our patients.
We have a management team who are very proactive, always around, welcoming, embracing, and encouraging us to be the best we can be, while respecting individuality and ensuring we maintain a work-life balance that brings out the very best in us.
We are happy to discuss part-time working pattern hours for this post.
