Underpinning this, the service aims to offer the highest level of clinical excellence and advanced practice with a local community focus. District Nurses play a crucial role within the primary and community healthcare settings and we visit to provide care to patients in their own homes across Cwm Taf Morgannwg. As a nursing service we are committed to working with our patients and also those important to them. We aim to support patients to manage their own conditions and to provide nursing interventions and treatments for those in need, thereby avoiding unnecessary admission or readmission to hospital whenever possible. It is predicted that the demand for District Nursing services is certain to increase because of a growing elderly population, reduced length of hospital stays and the move to treat more patients, often with complex care needs, in the community. Across Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, the number of people aged 85 and over is expected to more than double by 2036 alongside increasing numbers of the population living with one or more chronic conditions (WG, 2013).
