Nursing

We can supply nurses to families or individuals for home care assignments. We can also supply nurses to organisations either on a temporary or permanent basis.

Northwood Nursing & Care Services employs professional nursing staff, all of whom have been through our rigorous recruitment process and have been checked by the Criminal Records Bureau.

We provide the following categories of staff:

Registered Nurses
Registered with The Nursing and Midwifery Council. The nurses we provide are capable of delivering all general nursing care to patients in their homes. We do not provide midwives or paediatric trained nurses unless by special arrangement.

Health Care Assistants (referred to as Carers)
These are not qualified nurses but may have Health Care training and/or experience. The Carer may deliver all basic personal care such as bathing, dressing and transferring. Carers are not permitted to carry out invasive procedures or to give medication, other than from a Dossett Box.

Live-In
Northwood Nursing & Care Services provides short term, long term or relief live-in cover by all categories of Nurses and Carers. Our live-in Nurses and Carers operate under strict guidelines and we adhere to the Working Time Directive, as detailed in our Service User's Guide.
