Nursing and Healthcare Support Worker Programmes
The general practice nursing workforce must be at the forefront of leading change by delivering better health outcomes in primary care, and by making primary care ‘the place to be’ for ambitious nurses who deliver world class care and support our population to live well. There are a number of opportunities available to nurses at all stages of their career.
This exciting new opportunity is no longer limited to new to practice GPs and nurses and is now open to individuals working in other roles (e.g. Pharmacists) across General Practice in NW London. This offer is open to anyone regardless of how many years you have worked in General Practice, so you can now share your experience and join a project that will impact the workforce and benefit the patient population.
