Nurse Team

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

The nursing team consists of a number of staff members, with various roles in the practice.

Our Practice Nurse does a variety of Treatment Room procedures. These are commonly cytology (smears) and immunisations of various types, and some other medication injections such as Vitamin B12.

The Nurse Associates support the Practice Nurse in Treatment Room procedures, and additionally perform ECGs and other investigations on behalf of the clinical team

Our Health Care Assistant performs a broad range of tasks, and additional competencies are being added to constantly. These include some Influenza Immunisations, most dressings, Health Checks and blood test sample collection.
