An exciting opportunity has arisen at the Countess of Chester Hospital for a permanent Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) to work within the Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) and Emergency Department (ED) footprint at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
The successful ACP will work collaboratively with the multi-disciplinary team but also work autonomously to provide clinical care, expertise, and advice supporting same day discharges and preventing unnecessary admissions. A clinical background in Frailty would be advantageous.
So, if you are an innovative, enthusiastic, and dynamic ACP who enjoys the daily challenges of working in an emergency care environment as part of a supportive, caring, and friendly team, then this is the opportunity for you.
The Advanced Clinical Practitioner role works beyond normal professional boundaries as an Allied Health Professional (AHP) and will be working at an advanced level undertaking tasks that have been previously undertaken by medical and/or technical staff.
