Job overview
Jean Bishop Frailty Community Services (JB-CFS) have been operational since May 2018, providing innovative, anticipatory patient tailored care to frail residents of Hull and the surrounding areas, including those residing in care homes.
The Centre has already been recognized for national awards and continues to receive outstanding patient feedback. The JB-CFS also featured on NHS England’s website dedicated to the NHS Long Term Plan as the leading case study in the Ageing Well section. More recently, the team featured on a Panorama programme which assessed the innovative and new ways of working delivered by our team, evidence to support not only our frail population but also the demands placed on the NHS.
This is an amazing varied opportunity for an independent prescriber with advanced practice qualifications who is passionate about caring for older and frail patients, who also has the drive to help further develop a high profile service care within the community.
In this role you will work as an expert autonomous practitioner across all work-streams supported by the JB-CFS; assessing and proactively planning the care and treatment of older people and those with frailty, working closely with the multi-disciplinary team and community services to ensure patients receive holistic and comprehensive care and support.
Main duties of the job
You will need to possess the necessary skills to deliver services to patients with a wide range of complex clinical needs, including acute presentations. Experience of working with patients suffering long term conditions would also be advantageous.
The abilities to communicate professionally and effectively whilst in a caring manner with patients and their carers together with experience of working within a multi-disciplinary team are also essential, as is working experience/knowledge of local pathways and referral procedures.
If you require any further information or wish for the opportunity for an informal visit to the Jean Bishop Integrated Care Centre, please contact Tracey Woodrow, Operations Manager: tracey.woodrow@nhs.net
We can offer flexibility to the successful candidate in terms of either full or part-time working.
The vacancy is permanent; if preference for a secondment opportunity this too will be considered. The service is open 365 days per week with expectation for successful candidates to be included on weekend and bank holiday rotas.
