Nottingham, England, United Kingdom Temporary Posted 1 week ago
Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) is nationally recognised as having an established Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) service, with ACPs embedded across 18 specialties. We are now seeking committed, enthusiastic and compassionate individual/s as a qualified ACP to join our Respiratory team to deliver the highest quality care to our patients. Successful applicants will have already completed an MSc in Advanced Clinical Practice or have achieved the Centre for Advancing Practice digital badge.
The respiratory department is led by a group of Respiratory Consultants and delivers secondary and tertiary care. Our team of experienced respiratory ACPs provide cover to the Respiratory Assessment Unit and Respiratory Same Day Emergency Care Unit. The SDEC Unit was set up and is primarily staffed by ACPs providing rapid assessment of patients alongside an experienced nursing team. We also offer an inreach service to ED to provide autonomous early intervention to patients who present at the QMC campus. Our goal is to provide the best possible care in this busy and thriving department. The practitioner can expect to encounter conditions ranging from common acute respiratory presentations such as such as asthma and COPD, respiratory infections, and complications of lung cancer; to more complex conditions.
In addition to the brief list above you must familiarise yourself with the full job description and person specification attached to this advert prior to applying.
We currently have a team of 11 qualified and 2 trainee ACPs, with a mix of both Nurses and Physiotherapists and are looking for a motivated individual to join our team. We are an established service at NUH having ACPs in post since 2015 with the team consistently growing since then. We have an agreed set of capabilities in practice governed by the Senior Advanced Practice team and the Lead Respiratory Consultant for Advanced Practice. The successful candidate will need to demonstrate that they have a comparable set of capabilities through a review of a contemporary and detailed portfolio.
The successful candidate will be required to work across both campuses and shift work in line with our current patterns. We provide a 7-day service to our admissions unit, with a 5-day service to the Respiratory SDEC Unit and Emergency Department.
