Job summary
An exciting opportunity has become available at Hedena Health to join our Integrated Neighborhood (Proactive Care) Team as a Paramedic or Advanced Practitioner. This team is known as the PACT (Proactive Care Team).
We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Paramedic/ANP to join our friendly and supportive team establishing an innovative multi-disciplinary way of working that aims to improve the experience and outcomes of primary health care for the most complex patients at Hedena. The project aims to provide an internal multi-disciplinary team (MDT) that brings together GPs, GP trainees, Practice Nurses, Paramedics, Pharmacists, Social Prescribers, Community Health and Wellbeing Workers and a Mental Health Nurse as needed to integrate proactive care for the most vulnerable or at risk of unplanned hospital admission or rapid deterioration of their health.
Main duties of the job
The PACT team further integrates with wider external health and social care networks via weekly MDT meetings within our PCN (Manor surgery) which connect with Oxford City Council, social services, housing services, mental health services, district nursing, OUH care of the elderly and ED services as well as urgent hospital at home services.
This new and innovative approach to patient care, and our ethos of team working and personal/career development, aims to improve health care for the most at need.
The Paramedic/ANP role is one of direct patient care either through telephone assessments, face to face assessments, and will include a significant element of home visiting. This will not replace acute PCVS home visiting service or district nursing service but will complement this and work alongside these services.
We value a proactive attitude, someone who enjoys working with a team and your ability to demonstrate commitment, intelligence and forward thinking.
Initial hours available are up to 3 sessions per week on a fixed term contract until the end of March 2027.
About us
Hedena Health is a large and progressive primary care organisation serving communities across Oxfordshire. We are committed to providing accessible, high-quality healthcare services that place patients at the centre of everything we do.
We are dedicated to creating a positive working environment where staff are supported to develop their skills, contribute new ideas and provide the highest standard of care. Joining Hedena Health offers the opportunity to be part of an innovative and forward-thinking team focused on improving health outcomes for the local population.
