Are you a Nurse, Paramedic or AHP looking for a new challenge? Have you ever considered applying your knowledge and experience in a different healthcare setting? If the answer is yes, then an exciting new challenge awaits you at St Andrews Healthcare.

Main duties of the job

The Role

We are seeking an experienced Advanced Clinical Practitioner who enjoys working at the top of their clinical competency and values education, support, and development within the workplace. Primary or community care experience would be beneficial but is not essential.

• Preventing unnecessary admissions to local acute hospitals
• Providing a safe resuscitation service
• Reducing risks associated with psychotropic medication
• Increasing access to national health screening programmes
• Enhancing management of long-term conditions

This role can be demanding, working in a fast-paced environment, but for the right individual, it offers a rewarding opportunity within a friendly, family-oriented team.
