Working autonomously and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team, you will undertake physical assessments, make independent clinical decisions, and support care home staff to deliver safe, person-centred care.

The proactive element of the role includes advanced care planning, supporting residents, families and care home staff to have timely conversations about clinical outcomes, escalation decisions, preferences for future care and endoflife treatment, ensuring care is coordinated and aligned with individual wishes.
