Patients still benefit from the visits of our passionate clinicians when required and this role is not limited to virtual working.
As a Senior Clinician working in the NHS @Home service you will provide day to day management of caseload and staffing, alongside the hands on elements of carrying out both home visits and virtual monitoring to support patients across BNSSG.
