Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds Teaching Hospitals Full time

Job summary

The multidisciplinary team at Leeds Vascular institute are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic Advanced Clinical Practitioner to further develop and deliver their Perioperative Frailty Service.

This dedicated service manages vascular patients 65yo and older in line with CPOC (Centre for Perioperative Care) guidelines. Based on Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA), frailty syndromes are identified and managed to optimise patients to their best possible condition for surgery. The service offers broad and holistic care to this patient cohort, including enhanced shared decision making and advance care planning, and managing conditions when the surgical risk may simply be too high. It prides itself on full integration and collaboration with the vascular surgical and broader multidisciplinary team to deliver high quality individualised patient care.

Main duties of the job

The role itself involves the assessment, and management of frail older patients who are being considered for vascular surgery, including frailty assessment, management and optimisation of co-morbidities in the perioperative period, contribution to truly collaborative ward rounds undertaken by the Surgeon and the Geriatrician together, and attending ward MDT meetings. The post holder will be in the privileged position of participating in enhanced shared decision making and advance care planning and planning the consequential care. The role has a significant outpatient component, working alongside Surgeons and Anaesthetists to assess and optimise care prior to any proposed admission/procedure. Additional support and training will be provided if this is unfamiliar clinical territory.

About us

This autonomous role has excellent potential for personal and professional, as well as service development and leadership opportunities. The job is Monday-Friday (8-4) although there is some scope for flexibility here, and applications from people wishing to work LTFT will be considered.

The successful applicant will actively engage in audit and clinical governance activity and the current post holder has also presented work at national conferences.

There is scope to engage with other surgical specialties across the Trust, promoting the work of frailty services in the older surgical patient.

It is hoped that the service will further expand in the coming year and the incoming post-holder will have the opportunity to be at the forefront of new developments including supervising and training additional ACP/tACP team members.
