ABM Clinical Nursing

Community Learning Disability Nurses are based in the Adult Community Support Teams.

Community Nurses work directly with clients, their families and carers to promote optimum
physical and emotional health and well being, through assessment, advice and education.
Community Nurses undertake both clinical and case management roles, and work with people with a Learning Disability who have Complex Health Needs including Epilepsy, Mental Health Needs, and Challenging Behaviour. Community Nurses work closely with all professionals within the Community Team, and also with colleagues in Primary and Secondary Care Services, to ensure the best delivery of healthcare to people.
