Services

District nurses

The District Nurses service is a team of skilled nurses working with your general practitioner, generally based in the same building.

We will visit housebound patients requiring nursing intervention. This includes dressings, removal of clips/sutures, taking of blood specimens, injections, health promotion advice, smoking cessation, care of catheters and post operative dressings.

You can access the district nursing team via your GP surgery.

  • Day service – 08.00-17.30
