First Contact Practitioner

2 weeks ago

Wigan, United Kingdom Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Full Time/Part time/Flexible Working will be actively encouraged.

The role will require you to work across all areas in the Trust which may include those that are designated as positive, asymptomatic and negative COVID wards.

The role will be based predominantly in Primary Care, within the established FCP team, within a PCN. You will be the first point of contact for patients with undiagnosed MSK disorders and will need highly developed differential diagnostic skills to ensure patients are managed safely, efficiently, and effectively. You will direct the care pathway for your patients autonomously, including assessment and diagnostics, provision of diagnosis, appropriate self-care advice or onward referral as indicated. You should understand indications for, and limitations of, relevant MSK investigations, and will be confident in explaining their use and implications to patients. You should have or be currently undertaking Level 7 learning within MSK.

This role is designed to establish MSK expertise in Primary Care, and as such you will work closely in practices to build excellent working relationships with the PCN team members. You will bring expert MSK knowledge to your PCN, and as such will be a resource to the wider team. You will work closely with your Band 8a FCP to provide support and training within the PCN and wider FCP team. You will need to have clear evidence of team working and will be expected to support the band 8a FCP Lead in effective service delivery, audit and improvement. Although the role will be primarily Primary Care based, you will also be a key resource for the wider MSK and Physiotherapy team.
