Beechwood Medical Practice

This job is now closed

Job summary

Due to retirement we are looking to recruit a registered nurse to our practice team. We would consider applicants who want full or part time hours. Previous primary care experience would be beneficial but not essential.

We have a diverse and multi-skilled workforce with supportive GP partners and admin team. We work in great premises in the Fishponds area of Bristol and are part of the FABB Primary Care Network with neighbouring practices, Air Balloon Surgery and Fishponds Family Practice.

Happy for informal approaches prior to application, if you would like to come and have a look around or discuss the role please do get in touch. Interviews will be on Tuesday 30th January 2024.

Main duties of the job

Our nurses provide a range of patient services including chronic disease management, vacs & imms, cervical screening and general treatment room services. We have a good skill mix within our current team and so could develop someone who may not have all of the above. We provide some enhanced access hours and so flexibility and a willingness to work very occasional weekend shifts is essential.

About us

We are a friendly team of eight GP partners, 2 salaried GPs, 6 nurses, pharmacists, paramedic and experienced admin team. We strive for a good work/life balance within a supportive environment and to ensure that everyone has a voice within the team. We hold regular nurse team and clinical meetings.

Staff are given the opportunity and support to develop their skills and reach their full potential.

We are a doctor training and teaching practice and also provide placements for student nurses. We will offer a competitive salary, NHS pension, and a pleasant working environment.
