An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Band 5 Community Nurse to join the Formartine Community Nursing Team.

Based at Oldmeldrum, the successful candidate will work flexibly across the Formartine locality in line with service needs, delivering high-quality, person-centred nursing care within the Aberdeenshire Health and Social Care Partnership.
