Parish Nursing Vacancy (Part Time)


Parish Nursing supports people and communities to whole person healthcare. We do not do what the NHS does, but aim to complement it, and the one precious thing that the Parish Nurses can offer you is time! Time to let you explain your health issues, time to talk to someone who understands and can offer support – through our staff or volunteers or by connecting you into existing agencies, activities or support groups. This could be in your home or elsewhere. We have two Parish Nurses, as well as non-health professional and DBS checked, volunteers.

Parish Nursing can help tackle health issues in our local community and help reduce isolation, prevent ill-health, deterioration, or oversee recovery by providing additional support to individual carers and groups.

We are interested in the whole person – body, mind and spirit – so if you want prayer support as well, we would be very happy to do that.

Examples of support, but not limited to, include: 

  • Support for the physical, mental, social and spiritual health of individuals
  • Health promotion and screening
  • Personal health advice
  • Advocacy support
  • Health education
  • Training and supporting of volunteers
  • Help with understanding medical information, diseases and conditions
  • Increasing and maintaining safety and independence in the home
  • Prayer

Support from Capel Parish Nurses is available to anyone living in and around Capel St Mary regardless of age, background or beliefs. 

Capel Parish Nurses is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, registered with the Charity Commission, number 1173638, since 06/2017.
