How Community Nursing works
Our services are unique and personalised to your individual needs. We’ll partner with you, your family and your GP, and we can also train your carers, so they’re aware of your specific needs.
Staff training ensures those supporting you are well prepared. We’ll also train family and carers across a range of areas including:
- Clinical training e.g., enteral feeding, diabetes training and education
- Mental health and recovery
- Bowel care training (enemas and suppositories)
- Emergency medication training.
Support designed just for you
Whether you need a one-off consultation, lifelong care or something in between; we make sure to fully understand your circumstances so that your care is completely personalised and holistic.
And to make sure you’re in familiar and comfortable surroundings, we provide Community Nursing services in your own home.
