About the Role
We are seeking an exceptional Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) / Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) to join our high-end private medical clinic.
This is an opportunity for an experienced, confident clinician who thrives in an autonomous environment and takes pride in delivering outstanding patient care and service. Our patients expect an exceptional clinical experience, so we are looking for professionals who combine excellent clinical skills with confidence, professionalism and a polished, personable approach.
Unlike many larger organisations, we are a small, agile team. We value clinicians who are proactive, adaptable and solutions-focused, and who are comfortable making independent clinical decisions within their scope of practice.
Role Overview
An Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP/ACP) is a highly skilled, autonomous clinician responsible for assessing, diagnosing, treating and discharging patients presenting with acute illnesses and minor injuries.
The ACP/ANP works independently, ordering and interpreting investigations including blood tests and X-rays, prescribing medications where appropriate, and providing evidence-based treatment plans.
The ACP/ANP practises clinical autonomy when managing patients presenting with a wide range of illnesses, injuries and ailments, working within established clinical governance frameworks. They will follow national and local evidence-based guidelines, exercising sound clinical judgement when seeking specialist medical, surgical or orthopaedic opinion or proceeding with definitive treatment within their scope of practice.
The ACP/ANP is authorised to discharge patients independently, without reference to a medical clinician, where this falls within agreed clinical governance limits.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage an autonomous caseload of patients presenting with urgent care needs, including both adults and children.
- Assess, diagnose and treat a wide range of minor illnesses and be competent in assessing and managing minor injuries.
- Perform comprehensive clinical assessments, including physical examinations.
- Request, interpret and act upon investigations including X-rays and laboratory results.
- Independently prescribe medications within scope of practice.
- Make appropriate referrals to secondary care or specialist services when required.
- Safely discharge patients with clear management plans and follow-up advice.
- Recognise and appropriately manage the deteriorating or seriously unwell adult or child.
- Deliver evidence-based care using current clinical guidelines and best practice.
- Maintain accurate, contemporaneous clinical documentation in accordance with NMC and professional standards.
- Participate in continuing professional development to maintain advanced clinical competence.
- Work collaboratively with colleagues and external healthcare providers to ensure seamless patient care.
What We're Looking For
We are looking for clinicians who are:
- Highly confident autonomous practitioners who are comfortable working independently.
- Excellent clinical decision-makers with sound judgement and the ability to remain calm under pressure.
- Natural problem-solvers who take ownership of clinical decisions and enjoy finding practical solutions.
- Professional, articulate and exceptionally presentable, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills suitable for a premium private healthcare environment.
- Passionate about delivering outstanding patient care and an exceptional patient experience.
- Adaptable, proactive and commercially aware, understanding the expectations of patients in a private healthcare setting.
- Comfortable working outside of large institutional structures, with the flexibility and initiative required in an independent private clinic.
- Team players who contribute positively to a close-knit clinical team while requiring minimal supervision.
Essential Requirements
- Registered Nurse or Registered Paramedic with current NMC or HCPC registration.
- Qualified Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) or Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP).
- Postgraduate qualification (PGCert, PGDip or Master's level) in Advanced Clinical Practice or equivalent.
- Independent Prescriber qualification.
- Extensive experience managing both minor illnesses and minor injuries.
- Minimum of 2–5 years' experience working within an Urgent Care Centre (UCC), Minor Injuries Unit or Emergency Department.
