Registered nurse

Overview

This is an ideal opportunity for a registered nurse who is seeking to broaden and utilize their range of skills and knowledge to nurse people in their own environment as part of a multi‑disciplinary team. The post holder will participate in the delivery of skilled, autonomous nursing care to patients within their own home.

The Brecon and Sennybridge District Nursing Team is an integral part of the Virtual Ward that aims to prevent unnecessary admissions to hospital and facilitate early discharge home. The team also manages a weekly Leg Club as part of the Lindsay Leg Club Foundation.

Duties include palliative care support and assessment, care at the end of life, supporting and assessing individuals and carers with long‑term health conditions, promotion of self‑management skills and wound care. The post involves lone working and requires the ability to travel independently between sites.

We are looking for motivated and committed NMC registered adult nurses who want to be part of a caring and supportive team. The ability to travel between sites in a timely manner is essential. The ability to speak Welsh is desirable, although English and/or Welsh speakers are equally welcome to apply. Continuous professional development is a core requirement for delivering excellent standards of care to all people in our community.

Part‑time and full‑time applicants are welcomed. Applicants who are Welsh speakers will receive support with training if necessary. Powys Teaching Health Board embraces diversity and inclusion, offering a supportive and welcoming place to work that is free from discrimination and fair in all its working practices. The Board warmly welcomes all, including those looking for first jobs, apprenticeships, re‑entry into the workforce or career changes.

The health board is the smallest in Wales, ensuring you are not lost in the crowd and providing an opportunity to make a real difference in the community. Working conditions support a healthy work‑life balance, with development pathways and a commitment to employee well‑being. Applications can be completed in Welsh or English, and applicants will receive updates on the progress of their application.
