An Exciting Opportunity for an Advanced Clinical Practitioner
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, motivated and committed Advanced Clinical Practitioner with strong clinical leadership and facilitation skills has arisen to join the Intensive Home Support Service (IHSS).
About the Role
IHSS is an award-winning multidisciplinary team comprising ACP's, Nurses, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Nurse Associates/Assistant Practitioners and Medics. The primary aims of the service are to reduce the number of avoidable conveyances to hospital and provide a holistic and comprehensive assessment in the patients' usual place of residence. IHSS is commissioned to provide the 2-hour Urgent Community Response across East Lancashire and Blackburn with Darwen - which falls under the umbrella of Community Virtual Ward. As part of this, both remote patient monitoring for low risk/intervention patients, as well as high acuity/intervention within a Hospital at Home model is provided. IHSS currently also takes a proactive approach in generating referrals from ED via our own deflection team, as well as collaborative working with North West Ambulance Service to replace ambulance attendance for patients deemed suitable for a 2-hour UCR.
