We are looking for a qualified, experienced, enthusiastic and highly motivated Advanced Clinical Practitioner, who has oncology or acute medical experience, to join our Acute Oncology Service (AOS). This exciting opportunity facilitates working within the four pillars of advanced practice: education, clinical practice, leadership and research.
The AOS team aims to provide seamless care for our service users where we provide prompt reviews of our patients by assessing them when they present for scheduled, unscheduled and emergency cancer care. Patients who are able to access the service will have a formal cancer diagnosis and will be experiencing complications of their treatment, their disease or both. The team covers both Systemic Anti-Cancer Treatment (SACT) and immunotherapy complications. The AOS team are also key providers of the AOS emergency advice line and work alongside the ACP’s. This aspect is fundamental to the service delivery and one of the prompt ways in which patterns have direct access to receiving high quality telephone triage and allow for direct admission into our assessment area.
The clinical role will be on-site and involve cross site working to Colchester and Ipswich Hospitals.
This role is full time, however we would accept a minimum of 30 hours per week. The service currently operates 5 days a week 8am-6pm. Please note the forward plan is to expand the hours and operation of the service to include 7 day working, including weekends and bank holidays.
The role involves working as part of and leading an enthusiastic dedicated team to ensure patients receive prompt assessment, advice and guidance and early access to secondary care services if needed. You will also be providing clinical supervision to trainee ACPs.
As an Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) for our AOS service, you will need to be clinically experienced within the field of oncology or acute medicine. The post will require you to work as an autonomous practitioner to appropriately assess, examine, investigate and treat patients at an advanced level. You will collaborate with senior medical personnel and the wider MDT as appropriate to the patient’s condition and will be accountable for the total episode of care.
You will have the opportunity to contribute to further development of a well-established and successful service with new innovative ideas. You will promote and facilitate evidence-based practice, clinical audit and research within the department.
