Are you passionate about supporting families and carers of people living with dementia? Do you have the skills and experience to provide compassionate, specialist support while empowering others to navigate the challenges of dementia care?

Join us as an Admiral Nurse, working in partnership with Dementia UK, and make a meaningful difference to the lives of those affected by dementia. This role will be supporting families across West Sussex and West Surrey.

As an Admiral Nurse, you will provide specialist dementia care and support to families, working closely with carers as they navigate the emotional, practical, and psychological impact of dementia.

Your role will focus on improving the quality of life for both people living with dementia and those who care for them. From pre-diagnosis and early stages through to more complex and advanced care needs, you will offer expert guidance, helping carers understand the condition, respond to changing behaviours, and manage the challenges that dementia brings.

You will play a key role in supporting carers through significant transitions—adjusting to diagnosis, coping with loss, and adapting to changing relationships—ensuring they feel supported, informed, and able to provide compassionate, person-centred care.

Key Responsibilities

- Provide specialist dementia assessment and support to carers, including home visits
- Develop personalised, evidence-based intervention plans that reflect the needs of both the carer and the person living with dementia
- Promote relationship-centred care, recognising the impact of dementia on families and support networks
- Empower carers to maintain their own wellbeing while providing high-quality care
- Work collaboratively with health and social care professionals to ensure coordinated, holistic support
- Contribute to the development and improvement of dementia care services and best practice
- Deliver dementia-focused training and education to colleagues, carers, and partner organisations

You will have:

- Registration as an RMN or RGN
- Full clean UK driving licence
- At least 2 years’ post-registration experience supporting people affected by dementia
- Experience of working in community or outreach settings
- A strong understanding of person-centred and relationship-centred dementia care
- The ability to support carers through complex emotional and practical challenges

This is a full time role working Monday to Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm. Regular travel within the West Sussex and West Surrey region is required, so we are ideally seeking someone based locally or nearby. You will provide a mix of face-to-face and remote support (approximately 60/40), alongside occasional travel to UK-wide hubs for training and collaboration. For more information on the role please contact Jo Dawson on [email protected]
