Job overview

Are you a passionate, innovative and experienced Paediatric Nurse? Have you got experience of working with children and young people with acute, short or long term/complex nursing needs? Want to deliver holistic nursing care within a professional and supportive team? Keen to develop your leadership skills and influence quality clinical practice?

We have a great opportunity for you to join our Children's Community Specialist Nursing (CCN) Team. You will be leading holistic assessment, care planning and review of clinical care for children and young people with a range of health needs to optimise their health outcomes.

All our CCN's take the lead on an area of community clinical practice including IV's, enteral, palliative care, respiratory, and oncology. It is important for you to develop and continually influence good quality practice in the community and with partner organisations.

We recognise it may feel daunting to move into a leadership role in the community setting, where you'll be expected to lead and work independently, but you will be working with a supportive team who will guide and support you.

Main duties of the job

The post requires the job holder to have:

1. Excellent communication skills,
2. Time management skills,
3. Clinical competence to deliver clinical nursing care independently and respond to unexpected demands and scenarios in a variety of community settings.

The ability to travel daily during the working day, sometimes at short notice, is therefore essential.

Working for our organisation

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust is a health and social care organisation dedicated to providing high-quality care with compassion to improve the health and wellbeing of the people we care for, as well as supporting and empowering them to lead a fulfilling life.

Our clinical teams deliver many NHS services, not only via inpatient and primary care settings but also within the community. These services include children's, adult and older people's mental health, forensic and specialist mental health, learning disabilities, primary care and liaison psychiatry, substance misuse, social care, research and development.

To achieve our goal, we look to recruit high-calibre candidates who share our vision and values. As an equal opportunities employer, we encourage applications from all sectors of the community, particularly from under-represented groups including people with long term conditions and members of our ethnic minority and LGBTQ+ communities.

Regrettably, we cannot offer sponsorship for all our job roles. If you apply for a role that we cannot offer sponsorship for, unfortunately, your application form will be rejected from the process.
