7 months ago
Are you wanting to develop your autonomy as an Advanced Clinical Practitioner?
We are a growing multidisciplinary service managing the advanced practice within Urgent Community Response, Community Virtual Ward and Community Inpatient Units across Norfolk and Waveney.
Our ACP workforce are from a variety of disciplines including nursing, paramedic and physiotherapy with backgrounds in primary, secondary and tertiary care covering a multitude of specialties.
This is an ACP led model which provides additional clinical and technology enabled support to a complex caseload of patients in their own homes and within a community inpatient setting, who would otherwise be admitted to an acute hospital, or supporting patients being discharged.
You will make initial and follow up assessments of patients both in stable and unstable phases of their disease. Implementation of diagnostic skills including full history, appropriate clinical examination and request of investigations where required.
You will contribute to developing and progressing the care provided by relevant services by looking at alternative ways of delivering care, alternative pathways for patients and developing the ACP model to provide the care required by the Norfolk & Waveney population and the ICS.
We would welcome NMC Registrants residing across Norfolk and Waveney as many of our services are replicated across the sector.
Main Duties & Responsibilities

In order to work at this level, professional requirements for advanced practice must be met.

The community of ACPs will need to be confident and competent to cover Community Hospitals, Community Admission Avoidance (as part of the wider Urgent Care Response working with the Ambulance service) and the new and evolving service of Virtual Ward.
Geographically these areas will be

North Norfolk Inpatient services - North Walsham Hospital/Kelling Hospital
North Norfolk - Community AA and VW
West Norfolk Inpatient services - Swaffham Hospital
West Norfolk - Community AA and VW
We will try to support preferences as much as possible in terms of both geography and the service that individuals predominantly cover, or support rotation if that is preferred, but all ACPs must be able to cover all areas on occasion for purposes of service resilience.
