FNP Supervisor

Are you a nurse who wants to make a real difference to the wellbeing of young parents and their babies?

The Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) is a national evidence-based programme being implemented across England. The aim of the programme is to improve the antenatal health, child health and development and parents’ economic self-sufficiency in disadvantaged young families.

The post holder is responsible for leading and managing the work of the Family Nurses, Quality Support Officer and also for managing Tiny Steps Family Support Practitioners and leading the Tiny Steps pathway across Northamptonshire. This includes providing in depth clinical and safeguarding supervision to the Family Nurses, maintaining the integrity of the programme, taking responsibility for the quality of programme replication according to the license, overseeing recruitment and engagement of hard to reach families, building local relationships and facilitating continual learning and service improvement. In addition, they will also hold a small caseload of families to whom they deliver the programme.

This is a demanding role combining clinical practice with a team leader / management and supervisory role, which requires a diverse set of skills and attributes as well as commitment to the ethos and principles of the Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) programme.
