This job is suitable for individuals who are career driven and have a passion for working in an agile manner, implementing solutions, delivering key organisational priorities and who are committed to make real changes to the health care services provided within Primary Care to improve patient care.
The job is not suitable to people who are not resilient to working in a fast-paced environment, working flexibly in line with ever changing demands in Primary Care and the wider NHS.

Main duties of the job
The role is an all-rounded, clinical ACP role; the postholder will need to confidently evidence and utilise key skills such as ability to work on own initiative, ability to develop an evidence-based, personalised, integrated health and social care plan in partnership with the individual, carers, relatives and health care professionals, based on a full assessment of medical, nursing and social care needs, and demonstrate ability to act as an autonomous advanced practitioner providing a comprehensive clinical assessment service to patients/carers/families resulting in safe, appropriate clinical decisions. The postholder will work in collaboration with local divisions (including Divisional Boards) and the National Modality Business Support Team to deliver innovative ways of working to meet the strategic aims of the organisation.
The role is not a regular 9am-5pm job and is not a pure patient facing role; the job requires innovation, flexibility and commitment and the postholder will be required to work on quality improvement as outlined in the job specification, and work resourcefully as part of the team to ensure tasks are completed.
