Urgent Community Response

Nursing / Paramedic 

The main duty of an Urgent Community Response (UCR) nurse/paramedic is to provide, high-quality care to patients in the community who are experiencing an acute deterioration in their health, that could otherwise lead to a hospital admission. UCR nurses/paramedics assess, manage, and treat patients in their own homes or care settings, aiming to review patients within two hours of referral.  UCR nurses/paramedics play a crucial role in ensuring patients receive timely medical support, enabling them to recover safely at home and reducing the strain on emergency services

Shifts

The UCR service is a 7 day a week service working hours from 8 am until 10pm and shift patterns are expected and we currently have an 8-8 and 10-10 shift.
