This is a varied and rewarding role, offering the opportunity to use your assessment, clinical decision-making and autonomous practice skills across a broad range of patient presentations, both within the surgery and in the community.

You will be joining a practice where Paramedics are an important part of the clinical team, working closely with GPs, nurses and other healthcare professionals, with regular opportunities for clinical discussion and shared learning.

We are looking for someone who wants to become part of the practice, not simply fill a role.

The role will also include supporting patients who are unable to attend the surgery, including home visits and working with other professionals involved in their care.

You will be well supported in your day-to-day work, with dedicated clinical discussion time each day and regular multidisciplinary meetings. These provide protected opportunities to discuss cases, seek a second opinion and work together on patient care.

About us

Spilsby Surgery is a rural dispensing practice caring for around 7,250 patients across Spilsby and the surrounding communities. Our team includes GPs, advanced practitioners, nursing staff, dispensary, care navigation and administrative colleagues, working closely alongside each other as one team.

There is a strong sense of teamwork across the practice. We value open communication, shared learning and different perspectives, and believe that every member of the team has something important to contribute.

We are continuing to grow and strengthen the practice, with a clear focus on providing excellent patient care while creating a positive and supportive place to work. We want people to enjoy being part of Spilsby Surgery, feel valued for the contribution they make and have the opportunity to grow with the practice.
