Crynodeb

• Do you have a passion for wound care?
• Do you have a NVQ level 3 in health and social care?
• Would you like to be part of a self-managing, nurse-led wound/leg ulcer clinic?
• Do you want to work locally and make a real difference in your community?

If you answered yes, we’ve got the perfect role for you!

Join one of our self-managing teams. The teams have professional autonomy and responsibility for their own day to day running; working to support and empower each other to deliver the highest standard of person-centred care.

The teams are self-managing where designated responsibilities for the team are shared and specific roles within the team are rotated i.e. allocation of clinics, team rota construction. Therefore, your role within the team is to support the ethos of a self-directed team with the authority to make decisions about workload, recruitment, training requirements etc

We can offer flexible working hours. The usual hours are 7am to 6pm, 3 days a week with 1 half day from 7am to 1pm or 12pm to 6pm.
The service runs 7 days a week so you will be expected to work at weekends occasionally (approximately one in every 8 weekends).

To work as a member of a self-directed wound clinic team that delivers person centred integrated care in a clinic setting. Care will be focussed on improving self-reliance and empowerment; seeing patients as a whole and supporting as required their health, social and psychological needs.


To work as an integral part of a clinic-based team providing consistent care to a defined clinic caseload of patients 365 days a year. This requires flexibility and commitment to maintain effective service provision for the team’s caseload.


You will be joining a transformational service





So what else?
• This is your chance to join a progressive and innovative service in a social enterprise that is patient and staff focused - you’ll even have the opportunity to become an MCH shareholder.
• We encourage staff to get involved in exploring new ways of working and service development.
• We’ll provide well established, in-service training, one to one supervision, and appraisals with regular support.
• You’ll be able to develop your skills in a friendly and supportive team.

Would you like to work flexibly? In the NHS, we are reminded every day of how important work life balance is. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us, for our patients and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement.

The small print
• Informal visits can be arranged on request.
• We will offer you the choice of two pension schemes; the NHS Pension scheme and the scottish widows group pension scheme.
• MCH encourages all staff to be double COVID vaccinated to protect themselves, their colleagues, their family and their patients.

At this time, MCH cannot fund or support any further nurses who require the OSCE training. Please do not apply if you require this training.
