    Job summary

    Exciting opportunity for an experienced Practice Nurse to join our friendly East London general practice. You will join a team of Practice Nurses and Healthcare Assistants and will undertake all aspects of the practice nurse role including cervical screening, baby immunisations and chronic disease management

    We are an innovative 7 partner teaching practice based in a purpose-built health centre in Poplar, East London serving practice population of over 15,000 patients.

    You will be joining a team of three nurses and two Healthcare Assistants in addition to the wider team which comprises GPs, Pharmacists and a Physician Associate. The practice is a teaching practice, and we provide patient services to a richly varied, multicultural population which includes families, students and professionals.

    Experience in General Practice is essential. We encourage informal visits to our Centre.

    Main duties of the job

  • The practice nurse will be responsible for a number of clinical areas such as health promotion, chronic disease management, health prevention, as well as supporting the management team in the reviewing of clinical policies and procedures.
  • Initiating and maintaining health screening and promotion clinics for identified areas of the practice population, recognising where modification of systems or referral is necessary.

    • About us

    Our Health Centre was purpose-built in 1987 and is owned and maintained by the Partners. It has 20 clinical rooms, plus a large educational room, undergraduate training rooms, and an administrative wing which provides office space for our administrators, secretaries, and managers.

    The Practice has a shared belief in the delivery of high quality, patient-centred, and evidence based health care. Patients interests are kept to the fore, and there is a strong emphasis on continuity of care and a commitment to continue developing patient services. Every patient and their family are allocated to a named GP upon registration. They are encouraged to see that GP for their routine care, though we understand that on occasions a patient may wish to see a different doctor about specific problems.

    We are part of the Poplar & Limehouse Health & Wellbeing Network, along with 3 other local practices, which formed in 2006 to work collectively and improve health care provision in areas such as heart disease and diabetic care.

    Our GP Partners have held external roles locally that complement the clinical work such as lecturer posts at Queen Mary University of London and leadership roles at the local CCG and the Local Medical Committee.

    We are also an Approved Training Practice for local GP training, undergraduate nursing students from City University and medical students from Barts & The Royal London.
