The CTM School Nurse Service
The CTM School Nurse Service is seeking a motivated, autonomous, and resilient Band 5 Immunisation Nurse to join the team. This term-time post is 30 hours over 5 days. The role supports the delivery of school-aged immunisations in Merthyr Cynon while contributing to a one-team approach across the health board. The current base is Keir Hardie Health Park, though this may change.
The post holder will work confidently within a skill mix team and respond to the needs of a developing service. Immunisation delivery will take place in schools and community settings, aligned to the Welsh Government school-age immunisation schedule and Healthy Child Wales Programme 2. During periods of low immunisation activity, Band 5 nurses will support the broader public health role of the School Nursing Service.
Responsibilities
- Provide a high standard of evidence-based care in the delivery of childhood vaccinations in school and community settings.
- Develop and maintain good communication and relationships with partners, for example, Cwm Taf Morgannwg-wide schools and primary care.
- Undertake training programmes for immunisation schedules which include storage and administration of vaccines and gaining consent.
- Promote the National Immunisation Programme and take all opportunities to increase uptake and advise parents about the immunisation schedule.
- Attend relevant immunisation meetings to report on immunisation issues.
- Support with the delivery of the wider public health role of the school nursing service.
