Nurse Practitioner or Clinical Prescriber

The Advanced Nurse Practitioner will be the first point of contact for patients with all types of health problems. You will make decisions and apply appropriate nursing interventions to the presenting patient in their own home or in the surgery. This will include initial history taking, clinical assessment, diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of care. You will work autonomously but within the Practices and NMC policies, protocols and guidelines, demonstrating safe clinical decision-making, high levels of critical thinking and holistic practice. The post-holder will be expected to act independently but will have access at all times to a GP for advice and support as necessary.
