If you answered yes, then join our neighbourhood as we’ve got the perfect role for you!

Join our self-managing team in Chatham. This is a great opportunity for those who feel they no longer have the time to give basic holistic care to their patients.

Community nursing in Medway is part of exciting changes as we adopt the principles of working within a Buurtzorg model of care.

We are offering one band 6 role as well as two band 5 roles.
  • Our principle – keep it small, keep it simple
  • Our aim – empowering patients to self-manage health and social needs and improving quality of life
  • Our ethos – to have fun and enjoy nursing
To work as a member of a self-directed neighbourhood nursing team that delivers person centred integrated care in the community. The aim of the service is to support people to remain as independent at home as long as possible, proactively facilitating self-care.

To work as an integral part of a team of 8 -12 nurses providing consistent care to a defined community caseload of patients 365 days a year, 24/7 hours a day. This requires flexibility and commitment to maintain effective service provision for the team’s caseload.

The role requires close collaboration with the GP and other health, social care and voluntary organisations including but not limited to therapists, mental health, social workers, care navigators, case managers etc.
