Supporting over 180,000 patients across a wide range of therapy areas, we work with individuals living with both rare and orphan diseases, as well as more common long-term conditions. Our mission is to make life easier for patients by removing the stress of managing their treatment, offering personalised support, and ensuring every patient feels confident they are in safe and capable hands.
About the Role
As part of an exciting period of business growth, we are looking for an experienced Parkinson's Disease Homecare Nurse to join our Clinical Team. This newly created role will focus on supporting patients prescribed Produodopa for symptom management as part of a specialist Parkinson's Disease Patient Support Programme.
At HealthNet, we are passionate about delivering the highest standards of patient care. The successful candidate will become an integral member of our transformational Homecare Medicines Nursing Team, helping to shape and develop this specialist service while improving patient experiences and outcomes.
Through our skilled and dedicated workforce, combined with a shared vision of delivering the right care and support for every patient, we continue to make a meaningful difference to people's lives. We are seeking an experienced Parkinson's Disease Nurse who is committed to providing high-quality, safe, and evidence-based nursing care within patients' homes and, where required, in a clinic setting. The role demands clinical expertise, excellent communication skills, and a passion for supporting patients through complex treatment pathways.
Key Responsibilities
The post holder will work as part of regional teams, supporting Clinical Team Managers and field-based nurses with the day-to-day delivery of the Parkinson's Disease and Produodopa Patient Support Programme. Acting as a visible and credible clinical leader, they will promote best practice, champion high standards of care, and ensure the safe and effective delivery of Produodopa therapy at all times.
The role encompasses both clinical and supervisory responsibilities. Clinically, the successful candidate will manage a caseload of patients living with Parkinson's Disease who are commencing or receiving Produodopa therapy under the care of their NHS Consultant. This caseload will involve patient assessments, treatment initiation, education, ongoing monitoring, and support throughout the treatment journey. The role requires autonomous practice and the confidence to deliver care independently within community and clinic settings.
