A minimum of three years proven experience as a General Practice Nurse in a GP/primary care setting is essential, together with current professional registration and demonstrable experience across key primary care nursing services.

You will also support the assessment and management of acutely unwell patients, maintain accurate clinical records and contribute to clinical governance, audit, quality improvement and continuing professional development.

Our patient population includes children, working-age adults and older people, with a strong emphasis on continuity of care, health promotion and the effective management of both acute and long-term conditions.
As a family-run practice, we value a personal, supportive and patient-centred approach. We work closely as a team to ensure patients receive safe, responsive and holistic care, while maintaining a welcoming environment for both patients and staff.
The practice offers a wide range of primary care services, including chronic disease management, childhood immunisations and development checks, cervical screening, NHS Health Checks, women's and men's health, family planning, travel vaccinations, smoking cessation, phlebotomy and preventative healthcare.
For staff joining Queen Mary Practice, this is an opportunity to become part of a friendly, dedicated and supportive team, working in a busy primary care environment where every member of the team plays an important role in delivering high-quality care to approximately 6,500 patients.
