Trosolwg o'r swydd

We have an exciting opportunity for an Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) to work in our Integrated Frailty Crisis Pathway. This role will initially sit within our community based integrated service, rotating through our Single Point of Access and integrated Urgent Community Response/ Hospital at Home service.

We welcome applications from both Allied Healthcare Professionals and those with a nursing background who meet essential criteria. An Independent Prescriber qualification would be advantageous.

Within the Royal Surrey Frailty services, we have expanded our ACP workforce to help deliver excellent care to all older people with Frailty.  We have several established posts within the Acute Frailty Team (AFT), Frailty Same Day Emergency Care (FSDEC), Urgent Community Response (UCR) and Hospital at Home (H@H).  These posts contribute to the weekend rota for H@H.
