Main Responsibilities

In this role, you'll play a vital part in managing wound and ulcer care for patients with complex systemic conditions, including diabetes, vascular disease, and systemic inflammatory disorders, as well as those with multiple comorbidities.

As part of a collaborative and supportive team, you'll have the chance to develop strong professional links across key care pathways, including multidisciplinary teams, vascular specialists, orthopaedics, and community nursing.

Clear and effective communication is key in this role. You'll need to convey information in an understandable way to patients, ensuring they feel informed and involved in their treatment.
