• Clinical Decision Making: Use advanced clinical expertise to interpret trends, identify deterioration, and escalate care appropriately.
• Condition-Specific Care: Manage patients with respiratory and cardiac conditions (e.g., asthma, COPD, pneumonia, heart failure) providing guidance on treatment and self-management.
• Documentation: Maintain accurate, timely clinical records.
• Collaboration: Work closely with a multidisciplinary team to deliver coordinated care.

Essential Requirements

• Registered with the NMC
• MSc in Advanced Practice or RCN Accredited (desirable)
• Independent Prescriber
• Significant experience in respiratory and/or cardiology (e.g., COPD, asthma, pneumonia, heart failure, post-MI)

• Confident in escalation pathways and managing deteriorating patients remotely
