We have an exciting opportunity for a qualified Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) to join our supportive, dynamic Crisis Response Team in Trafford. The Crisis team is part of our Trafford Community Response Service (TCR) which also includes our Discharge to Assess team.

You will be from either a Nursing or AHP (Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy) professional background with an MSc in Advance Clinical Practice. Your substantive post will be with Crisis Response in the Trafford locality of Manchester, but you may be required to work across Manchester Community Response services within the City of Manchester.

This is an exciting time to be part of our new integrated multi disciplinary and multi-agency team providing specialist rapid assessment and interventions to our local population.



The post holder will be an autonomous practitioner who will be expected to take an active role in the respond, stabilise and make safe element of acute care pathways by delivery of advanced assessment, and the management and treatment of patients over 18 years of age referred to TCR services.


The ACP role within TCR will provide comprehensive healthcare sensitive to the needs of the population, including advanced clinical assessments, history taking, diagnosis, plan and deliver treatment, prescribe and evaluate. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team and across the primary, secondary and social care interfaces in Trafford, the post holder will be responsible for coordinating the delivery of urgent health care needs of acutely unwell people at risk of hospitalisation or requiring a facilitated timely discharge and supporting a more intensive level of care in the intermediate care environment. This includes direct referrals from NWAS (ambulance service), acute and primary care as well as providing community support.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
