Children and young people's community nursing service

Congratulations to our children and young people's community nursing service! The team have taken home the prestigious Children's Nursing and Midwifery Award at this year's RCN Scotland Nurse of the Year Awards.

The team were recognised for the incredible support and care they provide to families, whose children are diagnosed with complex and severe health conditions.

The team also provide palliative support for patients who are unable to access the specialist services of an urban setting.

Their recent innovations include setting up a multi-disciplinary team to support enteral feeding at home with a one stop clinic and developing a ‘near me’ virtual clinic during the pandemic to support vulnerable patients who could not attend appointments.
