Practice Nurse / Procedure Nurse

Newton Mearns, with planned Bearsden and Edinburgh clinic sessions

£30 per hour, depending on experience and competencies

Part-time or full-time considered | Funded training | Private GP-led model

Doc Plus is a growing private GP clinic based in Newton Mearns, Glasgow. We provide accessible, patient-centred private healthcare with longer appointments, clear pricing and a broad range of GP, diagnostic, screening, vaccination, ear care, minor procedure and wellness services.

We are now looking for a motivated Practice Nurse / Procedure Nurse to help us build a modern nurse-led service supported by GP oversight. This is an excellent opportunity for a nurse who enjoys practical clinical work, patient contact, procedures, organisation and helping shape a growing private healthcare model.

This role would suit an experienced practice nurse, community nurse, treatment-room nurse, urgent-care nurse, occupational-health nurse or private-clinic nurse who wants more autonomy, variety and progression.

The role

You will support and deliver nurse‑led clinics including:

• Phlebotomy, observations, urine testing, swabs and sample preparation
• ECGs, health‑check preparation and lifestyle measurements
• Blood‑test appointments and doctor‑reviewed health‑screen pathways
• Vaccination clinic support, including family and travel vaccination work
• Weight‑loss monitoring, injection teaching, side‑effect checks and follow‑up
• Ear assessment and ear wax removal after training and competency sign‑off
• Wart, verruca and selected skin‑tag treatment after training and competency sign‑off
• Preparation, chaperoning and assistance for minor surgery and procedure clinics
• Patient recalls, results follow‑up, documentation and safety‑netting
• Stock control, infection prevention, procedure‑room preparation and clinical audit

You will work to agree on Doc Plus protocols, with clear escalation routes. Prescribing and complex medical decision‑making will remain GP‑led. You do not need to be a nurse prescriber.

Training and development

We are happy to train the right person. Funded training and supervised competency sign‑off may include:

• Ear wax removal / microsuction
• Wart and verruca treatment
• Travel and family vaccination clinic workflow
• Health‑screening pathways
• Weight‑loss monitoring and injection education
• Minor procedure support

As the service expands, there will be scope to progress into a Lead Nurse / Clinic Lead role and help train future nurses across Doc Plus sites.

What we are looking for

• Current NMC registration
• Confident phlebotomy and injection skills
• Excellent documentation and IT skills
• Calm, safe and organised clinical manner
• Good communication and patient‑care skills
• Ability to work independently within protocols
• Willingness to learn new procedure‑based skills
• Clear understanding of when to escalate to a GP
• General practice or private clinic experience
• Ear wax removal experience
• ECG or health‑screening experience
• Sexual health testing experience
• Weight‑management clinic experience
• Smear‑taking, women’s health or chronic‑disease review experience

What we offer

• £30–£36 per hour, depending on experience
• Funded training and competency sign‑off
• GP support and clear clinical protocols
• Private‑clinic environment with longer appointments
• Varied clinical work, including diagnostics, procedures, and prevention
• Opportunity to help build a growing healthcare brand
• Potential progression to Lead Nurse as new sites open
• Flexible working pattern by agreement

Driving licence is essential for this role.
