We are a dynamic and forward thinking team looking for a band 6 nurse to join our established Watford Nursing team as a Deputy Team Lead. A great opportunity has arisen for an experienced and motivated registered nurse to lead one of our neighbourhood teams under the direction and leadership of the Team leaders. Your role would be varied and interesting carrying the responsibility for a patient caseload which involves the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of evidence based care to patients in their home environment.

Testimonials (staff quotes may be included in the original posting):
"I have found working in the community to be an extremely rewarding job. Since joining the team, I have been able to progress from a band 5, through to a band 6 caseload manager and now a band 7 lead within the Dacorum locality. No two days are the same in this job and there is plenty of opportunity to learn new skills. As an employer, CLCH really values its staff and takes the time to grow them. This is reflected in the values of our academy. Working in patients' homes is very rewarding. It is a privilege to be invited into patients' homes and lives to help see them through some of their most challenging times. This is a welcoming, friendly place to work and we are a hard working team who nurture and support each other. I would encourage anyone to apply to work with us."
