### Job overview

This post offers an excellent opportunity to join our growing Hospital at Home (H@H) service as a Band 6 Nurse / Paramedic, working as part of a skilled and supportive multidisciplinary team delivering hospital-level care to patients within their own homes. At CNWL we are committed to being inclusive, compassionate and respectful in everything we do, and this role reflects those values at every point of patient contact.

The role requires you to develop and maintain a broad range of clinical competencies including independent assessment in the home environment, use of digital monitoring tools, point of care testing, cannulation, IV therapy administration, catheter care, and frailty management.
