Job summary

We have a vacancy for a motivated, proactive and adaptable individual from nursing, paramedic or AHP professional background to join our well established ACP team at Heartlands Hospital. We welcome interest from both qualified ACPs and partially trained practitioners from acute care or other clinically relevant specialities. This post is not suitable for trainees new to the ACP role.

You will be working as part of the medical team providing leadership, expertise, advice and support to the AMU and Same Day Emergency Care Unit, ensuring the provision of high quality, person-centred care to acutely ill patients from the first point of contact to their final destination, either admission or discharge.

The department has an excellent track record of supporting both training and development of ACPs and provides robust Consultant supervision and a range of educational opportunities. ACPs are expected to participate in teaching, service improvement, audit and have opportunities to develop procedural skills and special interests.

You will be required to work shifts including weekends on a 1:6 rota. The post holder will deliver a 90% clinical component to their role and 10% related to appraisal, clinical audit, teaching, self-development and research if fully qualified. (Trainee post is 80% clinical / 20% non-clinical).
