Are you interested in becoming a key part of an innovative and forward-thinking organisation, developing your clinical skills across traditional health, social care and voluntary sector boundaries?  We are seeking a GP with a special interest in frailty who is driven, committed and enthusiastic, who will bring clinical leadership to our multidisciplinary team and provide high quality care to our patients. This post will be 2 sessions on a weekly basis with appropriate breaks

REACT brings health, social care and voluntary sector (British Red Cross, Suffolk Family Carers and Citizens Advice Bureau) services together to provide a single coordinated care response that is underpinned by care in the community with early intervention, crisis management, reablement and rehabilitation. Based in the lovely county of Suffolk, this is a key role working within our virtual frailty ward and the 2-hour urgent community response across Ipswich & East Suffolk.

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

The virtual frailty ward seeks to manage individuals living with frailty who have an acute medical condition that would usually necessitate an admission to the hospital but with the support provided by the virtual frailty ward team, the individual will be supported to remain in their own home receiving a high level of clinical care, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions to manage the acute episode.

The urgent community response within REACT provides a two-hour response and subsequent   support to people who are experiencing a health or social care crisis that puts the individual at risk of not being safely managed within their own home with an increased risk of a hospital admission. This service enables adults with complex needs to access support from a wide range of health, voluntary and social care practitioners, supporting the individual’s independence if possible.

Please see attached application information pack for further details about the role including the JD & PS.
