Due to organisational growth we currently have vacancies for Advanced Nurse Practitioners.
The primary focus of the role is to work as an autonomous advanced practitioner providing high quality and timely patient-centered care.
The post holder will be responsible for the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, referral, and discharge of a diverse range of patients with minor injuries/minor illnesses, without reference to a doctor and within their level of competence and agreed protocols.
This job role is aligned to that of a traditional in-hours Advanced Nurse Practitioner working in General Practice and has fundamental differences to that of the Out of Hours ANP Role.
Main duties of the job
Act as an advanced practitioner, demonstrating advanced clinical competence and a knowledge base beyond those associated with conventional nursing roles. See pre-booked nursing appointments as if working in a conventional GP Surgery. Undertake consultations, both face to face and via the telephone, with patients of all ages (neonate to elderly) as an autonomous practitioner and using own clinical judgement to diagnose, treat, refer, and/or discharge patients. Make direct referrals to primary, secondary, and social services within our agreed pathways, guidance, and protocols. Provide chronic disease management for pre-booked patients when allocated to specifically competent ANPs. Ensure that patients receive high quality clinical care, delivered in a timely manner. Prescribe, supply and administer medicines as indicated to address patient need. Ensure complete and accurate documentation. Work as an autonomous practitioner and as part of multi-disciplinary and multiagency teams in order to ensure patients' needs are met. About us
