About this role
Thornbury Community Services is seeking an experienced community nurse for night-shift, one-to-one complex care with a teenage male in a remote location near Plymouth. This role combines clinical expertise with genuine relationship-building—you'll provide not just medical support but also help create opportunities for your patient to experience life beyond their health condition, whether that's trips into the community, learning new skills, or simply having a reassuring presence for both the young person and their family.
The position demands substantial experience in complex pediatric care, particularly epilepsy management, ventilation support (CPAP), and gastrostomy care. You'll work consecutive night shifts (21:00–07:00) across the week, with pay of £39.55 per hour on weekdays and £44.06 on weekends. The role is based in a rural setting, so a driving license is recommended, and you should be comfortable around dogs. Thornbury emphasizes block bookings and the potential to pick up additional shifts with other clients in surrounding areas.
This suits nurses who are reliable, compassionate, and genuinely motivated by complex care work. Thornbury backs its team with 24/7 clinical support, free CPD, revalidation assistance, an employee assistance programme, and access to refresher training. If you have at least six months of UK complex care experience in the past two years and want a role where your clinical skills directly enable a young person's independence and wellbeing, this is worth exploring.
