The Role

Express new ideas, take initiative and save lives. Others talk about being brave, at IC24, we’re made that way.

From providing high quality integrated urgent care for over six million people, to thinking of innovative solutions for our patients – every role at IC24 is made to be brave.

As an Urgent Care Practitioner, you’ll be expected to assess all patients of all ages and provide the right management or referral. You’ll have to be reliable and dependable, passionate and committed to delivering high quality health care in an out-of-hours (OOH) environment.

If you have advanced Physical assessment (level 6 or above) minor illness skills, palliative care / end of life care experience and would like to join our professional team as an Urgent Care Practitioner (UCP), then we would love to hear from you. As we provide an OOH service, you must be willing to work evenings and weekends.

You will be responsible for diagnosing and treating patients with minor illness and other urgent presentations face-to-face within our out of hours services. You don’t need to be a prescriber as you’ll be able to work from a range of agreed PGDs. You will usually be based at one of our out of hours locations within Norfolk and Waveney in order to make home visits to patients in an effective timely manner.

This role is particularly suited to an experienced autonomous Clinician that has undertaken core modules of advanced practice within the Specialist Paramedic, Nurse/Paramedic Practitioner program or an experienced Nurse/Paramedic who has additional training in assessing minor illness and physical assessment.  This is an opportunity like no other – one that makes a difference to patients that require urgent care or deteriorate during the OOH period.

If you’re looking to add additional skills to your current portfolio or if you’re just seeking additional hours, this could be the job for you. You will receive a full induction and be supported by a Clinical Lead.
