Summary
A Vacancy at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.
Are you an ACP, who wants to work within a community based MDT, having a passion for supporting patient care and keen to make a difference? We are looking for an enthusiastic Advanced Clinical Practitioner who wants to join our Community Response Team and support patients to stay at home, reducing the need for hospital admission.
The ACP will have the opportunity to work on a rotational basis between our Hospital at Home and Urgent Care Crisis Response Team.
As an established Crisis Response service , you will work with an MDT alongside other ACPs in providing vital care in the community, completing complex assessments and minimising admission to hospital where possible. The new Hospital at Home service enables patients to receive safe, effective treatment at home for up to 14 days. They will provide medical assessments at home alongside our GPs, with overall care under a hospital consultant. We receive referrals from community services, NWAS, 111, GPs and ED deflections with a focus on keeping patients safe at home where possible.

With a passion for continuous development and service improvement, you will be involved in projects and trust initiatives. You will receive regular supervision, in-service training, and support.

This will enable you to use your specialist clinical skills across all four pillars of advanced clinical practice to determine the most appropriate pathways for your patients and will include access to virtual patient monitoring for patients that would benefit from additional clinical oversight.
You will work closely with the multi-disciplinary team across acute, community and voluntary partners to ensure discharges are safe and effective and to prevent re-admission.
Using your experience and knowledge, you will support other team members to ensure we deliver a high-quality service for our patients, providing education and support as needed.
We pride ourselves on promoting quality improvement initiatives, service development and professional and personal development and as a member of our team you will receive regular supervision, in-service training, and support to pursue post graduate education.
