Package Description
Advanced Nurse Practitioner - Primary Care
The Role
Primary care is where advanced clinical skills make the greatest difference.
It's where you assess, diagnose and treat patients at the point of first contact. It's where clinical expertise, autonomy and decision-making come together to deliver safe, effective care for people who may otherwise struggle to access healthcare services.
At IC24, we're looking for an Advanced Nurse Practitioner who wants to use their skills in a role that combines clinical leadership, autonomous practice and the opportunity to improve outcomes for some of the most vulnerable patients in our community.
Based within our Hastings Primary Care Hub, you'll lead on delivering high-quality care to unregistered patients, working as part of a multidisciplinary team to assess, diagnose, treat and navigate patients to the most appropriate care pathway.
The role also involves working closely with local partners, including the Seaview Project, supporting individuals experiencing homelessness, those living in temporary accommodation and patients with complex health and social care needs. This includes people affected by mental ill health, substance misuse, learning disabilities and other barriers to accessing healthcare.
At IC24, primary care is not delivered in isolation – it's connected.
You'll work within an integrated system designed to improve access, reduce health inequalities and ensure patients receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time. As a leading not-for-profit social enterprise, we're committed to delivering innovative, patient-centred care while continually developing our services and supporting our people.
What You'll Focus On
-
Delivering advanced clinical care
You'll provide assessment, diagnosis and treatment at the point of first contact, managing patients with minor illness and undifferentiated presentations while delivering safe, evidence-based care.
-
Prescribing and clinical decision making
As an Independent Prescriber, you'll prescribe medications following clinical examination and assessment, ensuring treatment plans are appropriate, effective and aligned to current best practice.

-
Working collaboratively
You'll build strong working relationships across the organisation and with external partners, contributing to shared learning, locality meetings and collaborative approaches to patient care.
