Description
Respiratory Nurse Band 7

The Redbridge Respiratory Team are looking to appoint a self-motivated Community Respiratory Nurse.

This post is primarily to assess and review patients requiring oxygen therapy in the community as well as supporting the general respiratory team.


The role offers an opportunity to work with a dynamic multidisciplinary respiratory team to improve the care and management of patients requiring oxygen, performing assessments and reviews in a complex cohort of patients with long term conditions.

The post will consist of both clinic and home visit assessments and ongoing care.

You should have experience in general respiratory nursing and ideally hold a diploma or recognised respiratory course. Community experience and being an independent prescriber is essential (or willing to work towards doing NMP course). Caseload management experience is essential. Applicants must have the ability to travel across Redbridge in order to carry out home visit assessments.


This is the exciting time as our respiratory service is going through a period transformation, offering more services to the local population in the community.

There will be more opportunities to further develop skills and knowledge.

If you are interested we would actively encourage an informal visit to meet the team.
