Tameside & Glossop Children's Community Nursing Team

Tameside & Glossop Children's Community Nursing Team We provide nursing care at home and in clinics for children 0-19 years who have an acute or long term illness.

We accept referrals from GPs, Health Visitors, School Nurses, A&E/Assessment Unit, Paediatric consultants. The children's community nursing service aims to keep children and young people out of hospital where possible by providing nursing care closer to home. We are a team of 15 paediatric nurses with a broad range of experience and nursing backgrounds. We cover the Tameside and Glossop area from 8am-8pm seven days a week, 365 days of the year. We visit children at home and also hold clinics 7 days a week at Tameside Hospital for non-acute appointments such as wound care, eczema and constipation. We care for children with a diagnosis including but not limited to: viral wheeze, asthma, viral illness, diarrhoea/vomiting, enteral feeding, oncology, eczema, constipation, HSP, rashes, IV antibiotic administration, management of lines and CVADs, neonatal outreach, palliative and end of life care. As a student nurse placement provider, we frequently accommodate student nurses from University of Manchester and University of Salford. We have good working relationships with local GPs and the wider health-care team including school nurses and health visitors.
