NHS - Children’s Community Nursing Team
We are a team of children’s nurses with extensive community experience. Our areas of expertise include Acute and Chronic illness.
Please note: All children will require a clinical diagnosis prior to being accepted by our team.
We aim to provide expert care and support for children and young people across Manchester.
We offer early discharge support following planned or unplanned hospital admission, for respiratory conditions, dressings and wound care, intravenous antibiotics at home, cardiac monitoring, oxygen saturation monitoring, injections and cytarabine at home.
We also operate appointment-only clinics in health centres across Manchester for wounds, blood pressure, HSP, eczema, asthma, injections, training/support, and phlebotomy. We work closely with the Palliative Care, Specialist school nursing and Children’s Complex and Ventilation team and support these services evenings and weekends.
