Frailty Lead (Community Matron / ACP / ANP / Advanced Paramedic)

Meridian is recruiting to a Community Frailty team, caring for our most frail, vulnerable and complex patients in the community. This role will focus on the assessment, triage and multi-disciplinary referral of multi-morbid and frail patients, including those that are housebound, living in care homes or recently discharged from hospital. This role will include semi-urgent and routine care, including visiting those living in the community with frailty and multiple long-term conditions. You will be working within the practices and with colleagues in CPFT and secondary care. This role will support all our PCN practices to complete home visits and on-going care to those who need it need it most, or those who have recently been discharged from hospital. As the team grows, we would expect this Frailty Lead to provide mentorship and clinical support to staff in the team, including Nursing Associate and HCA roles. This is a growing and evolving role, and so flexibility to engage with future ICB and neighbourhood Frailty initiatives would be required.
