Clinical Practitioner

Role Overview: Clinical Practitioners work alongside our GPs in the Call Centre based in Shrewsbury performing telephone triage, responding to calls passed through the NHS 111 service, as well as referrals from other Professionals from within the community setting. Whilst Clinical Practitioners based at our main Shropdoc bases at the Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals, will respond to home visits when necessary, in one of our distinctive livered Shropdoc cars with a driver provided. Both work streams require the clinician to have the ability to cover evenings and overnights on weekdays, 24/7 at weekends and Bank Holidays.

The Person: We are particularly interested in hearing from healthcare professionals with a primary or urgent care background (with or without non-medical prescribing experience). However, training is provided, and we are more interested in people with the right attitude and approach to work rather than specific experience. The Clinician must be both reliable, dependable and seeking a new challenge, have exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, and the confidence to work autonomously, making decisions without direct supervision, that said, support would never be far away when you need it., We provide and are currently recruiting additional Clinical Practitioners with an enthusiasm and passion for high quality care, to increase our existing team of very friendly and dynamic clinical practitioners across two of our current work streams -Telephone Triage and Home Visiting out of hours (OOH).
