• Engage in audits, service development, and continuous improvement initiatives.

What We’re Looking For

• Registered Nurse (NMC) with a Nursing Degree (or working towards).
• Independent Prescriber qualification.
• Physical assessment and Minor Illness course.
• Experience in General Practice or Urgent Care (minimum 2 years).
• Strong clinical decision-making skills and ability to work autonomously.
• Passion for patient care and continuous professional development.
