Are you passionate about frailty?
Are you keen to work across traditional health and social care boundaries?
Chesterfield and Dronfield PCN is seeking a Community GP to help lead our multi-disciplinary and multi-agency team of professionals working across the Chesterfield and Dronfield footprint.
This is an exciting and unique opportunity to be at the forefront of the delivery of our new Ageing Well model of care. The role will operate across the traditional health and social care organisational boundaries, including with our GP practice partners, to help clinically lead the service on a day to day basis. The aim for the service is to ultimately provide an holistic approach to acute on day / rapid response services, enhanced care into care homes and enhanced proactive care for older people with frailty for patients with multifaceted health problems.
To lead the clinical team delivering this service we are looking for a Community General Practitioner with a strong interest in working with people with frailty and who aspires to promote a continuous improvement approach to leading and delivering responsive, safe, patient-centred and effective care. The successful candidate will work alongside other community GPs to develop new and responsive clinical pathways for seamless working, shape and champion the introduction of new clinical roles, challenge traditional ways of working and proactively support individuals within the team to develop the necessary skills, competencies and expertise needed to deliver the service.
