REACT (Reactive, Emergency, Assessment, Community Team) brings health, social care and voluntary sector (British Red Cross, Suffolk Family Carer and Citizens Advice Bureau) services together to provide a single coordinated care response that is underpinned by care in the community with early intervention, crisis management, reablement and rehabilitation., The REACT Services are looking to recruit a fully qualified ACP to work clinically within the community setting with direct responsibility for the Frailty Virtual Ward. You must be a fully qualified ACP with proven experience in a similar role.

The role will provide the opportunity to work within REACT in conjunction with the nurse consultant, Geriatrician or Middle Grade doctor, which will provide a wealth of learning opportunities.

The Advanced Clinical Practitioner role will be integral in supporting the Multidisciplinary Team in the provision and delivery of acute and complex care within the frailty virtual ward.

You will be a key player in also building relationships between REACT and primary care, the acute trust, East of England Ambulance Service Trust (EEAST) and the wider community integrated neighbourhood teams.

We are ESNEFT and we provide hospital and community health services to almost one million people across east Suffolk and north Essex. Our dedicated staff deliver care from acute hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, community hospitals, surgeries, community clinics and in patients' own homes.

Along with supporting you to achieve your career goals we offer a generous pension scheme, unsocial hours payments (where applicable), 27 days annual leave on commencement (pro rata) and access to a range of NHS discounts. Our Staff Health and Wellbeing programme offer a variety of services.

Our philosophy is that Time Matters to everyone. Across the Trust, we concentrate on improving the things we do and removing those which cause time delays for our staff and patients.

We are investing in our commitment to Time Matters with a partnership with leading electronic patient record (EPR) supplier Epic. This digital transformation will bring what's widely regarded as the world's best EPR system to ESNEFT, transforming life in hospital for staff and patients.
