Local Nursing Work

Consultus specialises in ‘Live-in’ Care and Nursing and does not find work for health care assistants seeking local homecare, hospital or care home work. However, we can sometimes offer live-out work to NMC-registered nurses, to:

  • Visit our post-operative or chronically sick private clients on a daily basis
  • Help clients’ live-in staff with hoisting or other 2-person activities
  • Form part of a 24/7 nursing team for a client who needs intensive or palliative care
  • Provide part-time supervision to clients’ live-in carers

Visits would normally be between two and twelve hours per day on a weekly rota.
