Although home visits are primarily covered by our paramedic and nurse practitioner, there may occasionally be a requirement to undertake routine or urgent home visits, administrative responsibilities include responding to clinical queries, managing repeat prescriptions, reviewing test results and preparing referral letters and other correspondence promptly and accurately. The role also includes initiating investigations, reviewing outcomes and referring patients to secondary care or other services where appropriate ensuring treatment plans align with NICE guidance and chronic disease management protocols.

You will perform comprehensive clinical examinations and assessments, addressing both physiological and psychological needs, and developing care plans with timely referrals in accordance with practice, PCN, and local guidelines. Prescribing independently within your scope of practice, you will adhere to local or national prescribing guidelines while promoting health strategies that empower patients to adopt healthier lifestyles and embrace self-care.

Responsibilities also include handling routine and emergency home visits, managing administrative tasks such as responding to queries, handling repeat prescriptions, reviewing patient test results, and preparing referral letters or correspondence in a timely manner.
