We’re expanding our reach and we need a dynamic, compassionate Band 5 Outreach Practice Nurse to help us deliver excellent care directly to the communities who need it most.

It’s a chance to take your skills out into the community, hostels, day centres, temporary accommodation, and street settings bringing healthcare to people who cannot easily access it.

Applicants must have a full valid driving licence and have access to a vehicle for work. Adjustments can be considered in line with the Equality Act 2010 where required.

Interviews will be held week commencing 6th July 2026.

Run nurse led clinics acting independently but seeking advice and support from the Band 6 Nurses, Nurse Lead and GP team as required, at Luther Street Medical Centre (LSMC) or other outreach settings e.g. hostels.  Undertake assessment and treatment of patients accessing the service in a professional and safe manner, in accordance with national and local guidelines and protocols on clinical care.  Provide clinical assessment, nursing diagnosis and treatment of patients in the practice, the community and in the hostels and shelters that work with homeless people. Ensure timely escalation to appropriate members of the multi-professional team where this is required.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities
