General Practice Nurses (GPN) work in GP surgeries as part of the primary healthcare team and may have direct supervision of healthcare assistants at the practice.

Nurses play a key part in delivering care within their communities alongside other members of a multidisciplinary general practice team. GPNs will assess, plan, develop, implement and evaluate treatment programmes for patients, which may include:

  • Managing and treating long-term conditions
  • Managing treatment of minor and complex wounds
  • Family planning and cervical cytology consultations
  • Vaccination and immunisation including patients travelling abroad

Entry requirements:

  • A degree or diploma in nursing
  • Current Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) registration
  • Experience on a Fundamentals of General Practice Nursing course or equivalent
