Job summary

Nurse, Friend & Support

You are not a nurse to the people that live in our homes; you are an extension of their family, their friend, their reassurance, their support and most importantly the enabler of their independence and choice.

Whatever your nursing background we welcome you. Whether you have been working within the NHS or the private sector we are keen to know more about you.

So why choose Catherine House?

Catherine House is situated in the popular, historic market town of Frome in North Somerset.

Set in the Somerset countryside, the home offers 67 rooms, many of them overlooking Catherine House’s beautiful, landscaped gardens for individuals requiring residential, nursing and dementia care.  The cosy rooms are well equipped, and just like the rest of the home, have been designed to provide maximum comfort to those who live with us. The home offers an onsite hair salon, a sensory room and plenty of areas designed to encourage independence and occupation.

We are looking for enthusiastic nurses who are passionate about enhancing the quality of life for the people that we are privileged to support. A Registered Nurse who is full of knowledge and experience in nursing within the NMC code of practice. You’ll be a great mentor to those around you and you will have the support of Care Practitioners who are there to support you on a day-to-day basis.
