Job Description:
NHS Highland is seeking an experienced Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) to join the Drug and Alcohol Recovery Services (DARS) team, covering Lochaber, Wester Ross, Skye, and Lochalsh.
The role involves direct patient contact, clinical leadership, supervision, and providing advice to DARS nursing staff to ensure evidence-based care within localities.
Candidates should hold the ANP qualification and have experience working with individuals requiring addiction treatment. Those with relevant experience and a non-medical prescribing qualification may be considered for a trainee post under Annex 21 of Agenda for Change.
The successful candidate will work closely with similar roles across North Highland, leading in local pathway development and service improvements within the designated areas.
The location is flexible within NHS Highland boundaries, with some work potentially delivered via telehealth technologies such as Attend Anywhere and MS Teams.
A relocation package may be available. The current shift pattern is Monday to Friday, with plans to move towards a seven-day service, which may include working some unsocial hours and weekends.
