Community GP

Are you passionate about looking after our most complex and frail patients? Would you like the opportunity to lead a team who can make a difference to these vulnerable individuals? Then this opportunity could be for you. North East Derbyshire PCN are recruiting for Community GP to support our multi-disciplinary team providing healthcare to our housebound patients and patients in care or residential facilities across the PCN footprint. Please see the following video which gives more information about the role: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ_77QcLG_4 This job may particularly appeal to those with school age children or commitments at the start/end of the day we are looking for someone to take on the role to work 5 hours in the middle of the day eg 10-3, 5 days per week, although we are willing for this to be flexible depending upon your commitments. Job share and part time applications are also welcomed. We envisage that the role will involve developing continuity relationships with our housebound patients, taking a holistic approach to their management, and liaising with other health and social care organisations to improve the care of these vulnerable individuals. This will be a mix of remote and visiting work depending on the needs of the service. There will also be a leadership aspect to the role, providing support and supervision to the rest of the Home Visiting Team and helping to develop and evolve the service over time. You will be supported in the role by GPs at the four practices within the PCN and our fantastic existing Home Visiting Team currently comprising of 2 Community Matrons, 2 Paramedic ACPs and a dedicated Care Coordinator.
