Instead of nursing in hospitals, community nurses provide care to patients in their community settings, whether that means home, work or elsewhere. 

There are different types of community nursing which are

District Nursing

Bedded Rehabilitation

Health Visiting

School Nursing

This role is for District Nursing

District nursing care is mainly provided in patients’ homes and sometimes clinics or in general practitioner surgeries. District nursing services are generally for people aged 18 years and over.  The size of the teams varies according to demographic area, caseload size and patient dependency.  As a team member you will have an allocated list of patients to visit daily, the workload often changes during your shift according to the need to respond to urgent new referrals or the changing acuity of current patients and so you will need to be flexible and adaptable to these changes.

The district nursing team does not work in isolation but contributes to the wider multidisciplinary team that supports patients with care needs living in the community. As a community nurse you can refer to the patient’s general practitioner (GP) who can refer the patient on for more specific medical care needs. As a community nurse, you can refer directly to local authority social service for support with social care needs (personal care), physiotherapist, occupational therapist, podiatry, and other specialist nursing teams.
