• Request, interpret and act upon diagnostic investigations.
• Prescribe safely and effectively within your scope of practice (where qualified and authorised).
• Lead clinical decision-making and support patient flow through the service.
• Act as a senior clinical resource, role model and mentor for colleagues and learners.
• Contribute to service development, governance, audit, research and quality improvement initiatives.
• Work collaboratively with primary care, emergency care, community services and wider system partners to ensure seamless patient care
If you are an ambitious Advanced Practitioner looking for a role where you can make a genuine impact on patient care while helping establish an exciting new service, we would love to hear from you.

You must be registered with the relevant professional body (NMC, HCPC, GPhC or equivalent) and hold, or be working towards, a Master's qualification in Advanced Clinical Practice. You will demonstrate autonomous practice, advanced clinical reasoning, leadership and a commitment to continuous learning, service improvement and compassionate, person-centred care. An independent prescribing qualification is desirable.
