Community Matron Complex Care
The closing date is 19 April 2026
Job summary
Are you an experienced, highly skilled nurse passionate about delivering exceptional community based care? We are looking for a motivated Community Matron to support some of the most complex and vulnerable people in our communities.
In this senior clinical role, you will provide holistic assessments, personalised care planning and proactive management for individuals with long term conditions, frailty and complex health needs. Working autonomously, you will manage your own caseload, identify early signs of deterioration, and implement evidence based interventions to prevent avoidable hospital admissions.
You will play a key part in coordinating joined up care across GPs, District Nursing, Hospital at Home, mental health, social care and hospice teams. As a trusted point of contact for patients, carers and professionals, you will ensure seamless, integrated support that enhances patient experience and promotes independence.
You will also strengthen community nursing capacity through clinical leadership, supervision and education. Aligned with our Trust's commitment to outstanding care, thriving staff and stronger communities, you will help develop high quality, community focused services that reduce inequalities and deliver care closer to home.
If you are compassionate, proactive, clinically confident and committed to making a meaningful difference, we would love to hear from you. This is an exciting opportunity to shape community healthcare and improve the lives of those who need us most.

We deliver extensive physical health services too, from urgent community response teams helping frail and older patients remain safely at home, to hospitals at home teams providing acute-level care in familiar surroundings. Our neurological services offer rehabilitation and treatment for conditions including Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease, Motor Neurone Disease, Head Injury, Cerebral Palsy and Stroke.
