Overview
PRACTICE NURSE – PRIVATE GP PRACTICE
CMB Recruitment is working exclusively with a forward-thinking private GP practice based in South Belfast and dedicated to delivering personalised, high-quality care without the constraints often encountered in NHS settings.
The practice features a partner laboratory offering same day diagnostic results and an on site research & development facility—providing an excellent environment for professional growth and the opportunity to pursue your own clinical interests or research initiatives.
Role
We are seeking a registered Practice Nurse (NMC registered, with a nursing degree) who brings at least 3 years of experience in general practice to our team. You will play a key role in providing comprehensive nursing services—including health assessments, cardiovascular and metabolic testing, and phlebotomy—within a supportive and innovative private practice environment.
Responsibilities
* Perform comprehensive patient assessments, including phlebotomy (venepuncture), VO2 max testing, measurement and evaluation of BMI and body fat index, exercise testing, and electrocardiograms (ECGs).
* Conduct general and specialised nursing duties typical in a GP setting.
* Wound care and dressing changes.
* Blood pressure measurement and basic health screening.
* Administer vaccinations and immunisations (routine, travel, etc.).
* Chaperone and assist during examinations or minor procedures.
* Review and manage patients with chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, respiratory issues).
* Maintain accurate clinical records, manage clinical equipment and supplies, and ensure adherence to infection control protocols.
* Support or contribute to clinical audits, quality improvement initiatives, and professional development opportunities.
The Person
Applicants must have:
* BSc or equivalent nursing degree in an NMC-regulated field (e.g., adult nursing).
* Current, valid NMC registration.
* Minimum of 3 years’ experience working within general practice.
* Demonstrated competence in phlebotomy and performing ECGs.
* Strong clinical assessment, attention to detail, and patient-centred communication skills.
* Proficiency with healthcare IT systems and accurate record-keeping.
In addition, it would be beneficial but not essential if you had:
* Experience in chronic disease management clinics (e.g., diabetes, COPD, cardiovascular disease).
* Training or experience with additional diagnostics (e.g., VO2 max, BMI, body fat index, exercise testing, spirometry, peak flow).
* Familiarity with clinical governance, audit, and continuous quality improvement processes.
