We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated nurse with a passion for improving care for patients with Parkinson’s in Guildford and Waverley. If you are not already an experienced Parkinson’s Nurse Specialist, you will be required to complete the Management of Parkinson’s Disease course and the Parkinson’s Nurse Competency Framework for the duration of your band 6 development. You will have the opportunity to work alongside our Parkinson’s Nurse Specialist to develop your assessment skills within clinic and home visit settings. You will have the opportunity to shadow other health care professionals to understand how community services work and link with the wider MDT.
The post holder is responsible for the management of a defined caseload and for the assessment, advice and support of health and social care needs of these patients. The aim of this role is to reduce unnecessary hospital admissions, provide a link between the GPs, Consultants and specialist teams and signposting to other services where required.

Recognising that our 5000 colleagues are our greatest strength, we offer a comprehensive health and wellbeing program along with a commitment to developing and advancing your career.
