Full Job Description
- To provide advanced clinical interventions and drug therapies.
- To act as an independent practitioner using advanced skills to assess, diagnose, treat, develop and implement plans of care.
- To work towards providing expert advanced practice and associated leadership of unscheduled care provision that crosses professional and organisational boundaries in emergency, urgent and unscheduled care patients.
- To act as an expert advisor for patients, carers and all levels of operational clinicians.
- To take a key role in the development of unscheduled care, to enhance patient care services drawing on multiple research and development methodologies.
- Responds to emergency and urgent calls including driving under blue light conditions. Both the APP and TAPP positions are a permanent post, and the TAPP positions will develop into a full APP role following the successful completion of their training contract. If any member of staff does not successfully complete the full MSc, they will be provided the opportunity to relocate to a vacant or relief band 6 paramedic role.
We are recruiting to the APP Generalist pathway which will focus on Primary & Urgent Care clinical training placement, expanding knowledge in a range of clinical areas such as Paediatrics, Respiratory, chronic condition management and frailty. The expectation for APPs who hold the MSc in its entirety will be rotational working through a range of clinical settings including operational shifts, APPNav work in the remote setting and/ or primary & urgent care models (regional variation across the Health board areas). The pace of Advanced Paramedic Practice in Wales is developing significant momentum, and so applications are sought from paramedics with a minimum of 2 years post registration with a Level 6 Educational Qualification., The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.
