Are you ready for a new direction in your career with exciting challenges? Now is a great time to work for NHS 111 Wales as we continue to grow our offer to patients and deliver a clinically effective, patient-centered service. We are looking for more Triage and Assessment Paramedics to join us in meeting the challenges of urgent and emergency care across Wales.
NHS 111 Wales provides access to urgent out-of-hours care, 24-hour health information, and access to urgent dental services.
Are you looking for a different way to make the most of your Paramedicine experience? If so, we have roles for amazing people like you!
We at NHS 111 Wales recognize that ongoing pressures in many patient-facing roles are leading Paramedics to feel undervalued and overworked. This is an opportunity to deliver outstanding patient care without the physical strains of hands-on care, in a non-patient facing setting, which allows you to focus on prudent health for your patients.
Main duties of the job
You will draw upon your clinical assessment skills to help and advise a broad spectrum of patients, from minor ailments and injuries to complex and urgent conditions, while honing your skills in a remote clinical decision-making environment.
As a Band 6 Triage and Assessment Paramedic, you’ll have the autonomy to make decisions but be supported by our experienced team of senior clinicians, practice coaches, and multi-disciplinary colleagues.
The benefits of working for NHS 111 Wales include:
* Availability of home working
* A range of supportive work-life balance policies
* A range of health and wellbeing support services
* Learning remote clinical decision-making skills
