Key duties and responsibilities As part of our leadership population, you will be required to promote and role model Central Manchester Network philosophy, ensuring that you support team members by being the best leaders we can be for ourselves and each other. Clinical Responsibilities 1. Develop and maintain a specialist level of knowledge across a range of clinical procedures and practices to use as part of a rotation between clinical placements. This will typically involve specialist knowledge and skills in triage, history taking, structured physical examination skills, problem-solving and clinical decision-making in order to develop a clinical impression/differential/final diagnosis for patients.

2. Work alongside a nominated GP and/or Advanced Clinical Practitioner in providing a first point of contact for patients presenting with undifferentiated, undiagnosed problems across a variety of clinical or non-clinical settings according to patients needs (e.g. at the patients home). Develop clinical skills in assessing complex needs of patients/clients.

3. Evaluate information from clinical examinations and/or triage (incl. remote) in order to initiate appropriate treatment and/or referral. This includes appropriate signposting of patients to plan care for patients.

4. Instigate relevant physiological observations, point of care or diagnostic tests/investigations and interpret these within an agreed scope. Discuss the result and implications of these investigations with patients as necessary. 5.

Ensure safe handover of care within and outside GP and NWAS as appropriate.

8. Communicate sensitive or highly sensitive, confidential information concerning patients/clients requiring empathy, persuasion and reassurance (e.g. unwelcome news). Some patients may have special care needs, understanding needs or may be hostile or antagonistic, requiring a specific approach.

9. Display a sound understanding of consent and capacity, ensuring consent is granted for any treatment undertaken and best interests are considered as necessary 10. Where trained and directed to do so, undertake specific duties that are relevant to the practice and/or population needs (e.g. in primary/urgent care).

**These may include**: Participating in the assessment of local community health needs and assisting to develop patient and family-centred strategies. Assisting within the development of new patient services and participation in initiatives to improve or develop existing patient services. Assisting the practice/treatment setting to review emergency care protocols (e.g. by providing updates and training to primary care staff within scope of practice).
