Are you a Registered Nurse seeking a rewarding specialist role with real impact? This is an exciting opportunity to join our dedicated Bladder and Bowel Specialist Service, supporting children and young people across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly who experience bladder and/or bowel dysfunction.
You’ll work as part of a small, supportive team providing high-quality, evidence-based assessment, treatment and ongoing management. The role combines clinical expertise with the opportunity to educate and empower families, carers and other professionals to achieve the best outcomes for children and young people.
We welcome applications from Registered Children’s Nurses or Registered Nurses/SCPHN with community paediatric experience and knowledge of bladder and bowel care. You’ll bring strong communication, teaching and organisational skills, along with a commitment to teamwork and continuous service development.
If you’re looking for a specialist nursing role where you can truly make a difference, while being part of a compassionate, forward-thinking service, we’d love to hear from you.
You’ll provide specialist clinical assessment and treatment for children and young people with bladder and bowel dysfunction, working in partnership with families and professionals across community and acute settings.
A key part of your role will be to act as a clinical resource and educator, sharing your expertise with colleagues to support high standards of care. You will contribute to service development and quality improvement initiatives, helping the team to remain innovative, evidence-based and patient focused.
This is a busy and varied role requiring effective time management, excellent communication and sound clinical judgement. You’ll be expected to work independently, prioritising caseloads and collaborating with the wider multidisciplinary team to ensure care is well coordinated and timely.
If you’re motivated, adaptable and ready to contribute to a service that makes a lasting difference to children and families, we’d be delighted to welcome you to our team.
We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.
We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you’ll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.
Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.
We work in people’s homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.
Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
