Clinical Lead Nurse (Berkshire & Surrey) Salary: £45,000 to £50,000 per annum
We are recruiting an experienced Registered Nurse to step into a senior leadership role covering the Berkshire and Surrey area. You will oversee clinical standards, run our delegated healthcare training, and guide care teams in the field.
This position suits a practical, organised nurse who wants to step away from routine ward shifts, train carers directly in clients' homes, and shape clinical care across complex community packages.
What You Will Do
Training & Delegated Healthcare
- Build, deliver, and sign off practical clinical training for care staff, covering PEG feeding, catheter care, stoma management, suction, tracheostomy, and complex medication.
- Work alongside district nurses, GPs, and NHS commissioning teams to manage our delegated healthcare framework safely.
- Carry out regular field observations, spot checks, and clinical supervisions to verify staff competency.
Client Assessments & Care Planning
- Complete initial clinical assessments and write care plans for complex care packages, hospital discharges, CHC referrals, and paediatric clients.
- Update clinical risk assessments and care plans on a regular schedule or whenever a client's condition changes.
- Join the management on-call rota to provide out-of-hours clinical advice.
Clinical Governance & Leadership
- Serve as the main point of clinical advice for branch managers, team leaders, and care workers across two sites.
- Audit MAR charts, PRN protocols, and controlled drugs, and investigate medication errors to meet CQC and NICE guidelines.
- Run monthly clinical governance meetings reviewing incidents, safeguarding, medication safety, and overall care quality.
- Update and enforce clinical policies covering infection control, skin integrity, palliative care, and delegated tasks.
What We Need From You
Essential
- Active NMC registration with no restrictions on practice.
- Hands-on experience in community nursing skills, including enteral feeding, catheterisation, wound care, and medication administration.
- The ability to teach, coach, and assess non-clinical care staff in domestic settings.
- Strong IT and administration skills to keep clinical records and governance logs accurate.
- Clear communication skills and a practical approach to solving clinical problems.
- Full UK driving licence, access to your own car, and a home address within 30 minutes of the patch.
Desirable
- Previous work in domiciliary care, community nursing, or complex care packages.
- Experience writing or delivering structured clinical training sessions.
What You Get
- Salary between £45,000 and £50,000 per year, depending on experience.
- 28 days of paid annual leave.
- Company laptop and work mobile phone.
- Management-level health, wellbeing, and cash plan scheme.
- Defined contribution pension scheme.
This role fits an RGN, Community Nurse, District Nurse, or Senior Staff Nurse looking for a community leadership position.
