One of the best things about working as a general practice nurse is that you get to see all the aspects of a patient’s journey. As we support patients through their illnesses, we also get to know and understand them. This enables us to build good patient-nurse relationships and helps us tailor the care we provide to each individual.
I also enjoy working as part of a multi-disciplinary team where we are all valued for our contribution. Working as part of a team also allows us to support each other to deliver the very best care that we can.
There are also lots of opportunities for training and developing your career in general practice. These opportunities range from developing managerial skills to participating in research projects.
