Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

Advanced clinical practice is delivered by experienced, registered health and care practitioners. It is a level of practice characterised by a high degree of autonomy and complex decision making. This is underpinned by a master’s level award or equivalent that encompasses the four pillars of clinical practice, leadership and management, education and research, with demonstration of core capabilities and area specific clinical competence.

The Advanced Clinical Practitioner will therefore be required to embody the ability to manage clinical care in partnership with individuals, families and carers. This will include the analysis and synthesis of complex problems across a range of settings, enabling innovative solutions to enhance people’s experience and improve outcomes.

Advanced nurse practitioners are highly experienced and educated members of the care team who are able to diagnose and treat conditions and refer onwards to appropriate specialists if needed.

As such the ACP within the Forensic Directorate will be expected to:

·       Hold an appropriate Masters level award with appropriate modules in Advanced Health Assessment and in Non-Medical Prescribing

·       Take responsibility for own learning and development by recognising and taking advantage of all opportunities to learn, in line with core professional competencies of the Advanced Clinical Practitioner, including full participation in appraisal and supervision, and acting as role model for self-development.
