Have you ever considered a role as a Specialist Community Public Health Nurse (SCPHN) in Health Visiting?
Are you motivated to learn and develop knowledge, skills and critical abilities to provide leadership and innovation in schools and local communities? Would you enjoy the rewards and challenges of leading new ways of working and innovation in preventative health in the community?
As a SCPHN you can make a real difference to children, young people, families and communities. You will play a fundamental role in the development of the Healthy Child Programme 0-19 across the BNSSG footprint, promoting development, emotional health and well-being of the child or young person.

This is supportive of your experiential learning and exposure to wider communities within our geography.
As a SCPHN student you will be an NMC Registered Nurse or Midwife and will complete a 52-week programme at Masters level to gain the professional qualification of SCPHN (50% in practice and 50% theory lead by UWE). Included in the 52 weeks the student will gain practical experience and exposure to a range of experiences within the service.

Students will have access to additional learning within the organisation including, learning sets and role specific training alongside the public health nursing teams.
What Our Colleagues Say About Us

No two days are the same as all visits are so personal to the family I am working with. I also enjoy working with families and helping them to navigate the support available to them in the wider community. ’’ Current Sirona Health Visitor
‘’ My role is varied each day and allows me to work with children and young people to identify what matters to them, give information and signpost to the right support. I found the course enjoyable and would recommend it to anyone interested. ‘’ Current Sirona School Nurse
