Paramedic or FCP Paramedic

Job summary

Mendlesham Medical Group is looking for an enthusiastic paramedic who wants to develop their career within a supportive general practice environment. This position is offered on a full-time basis.

The FCP Roadmap and becoming a prescribing paramedic is an essential part of the role, but you will be helped and supported along the way. We will provide structured supervision, mentoring, protected learning and access to our established practice education programme for the medical students, GP registrars and the rest of the practice team.

Our aim is to help you develop confidently into a highly skilled and autonomous member of our clinical team, while ensuring that experienced clinical support is always close at hand. You'll be able to prioritise work-life balance, well-being and professional development, in a friendly, well-run and innovative environment.

You will be required to travel between our sites (4 miles apart) and for home visits within our catchment area. On occasion you may be required to work collaboratively with our neighbouring practices to aid with cover for home visits.

Main duties of the job

No two days will be quite the same. You'll work alongside our GPs, nurses and wider clinical team, managing your own mix of face-to-face and telephone consultations, with clinicians around you for advice, support and discussion whenever you need it.

Your day might include assessing an acutely unwell patient in surgery, undertaking a home visit, arranging investigations or a referral, reviewing results, or following up a patient after a hospital admission. Youll also be part of our MDTs, clinical meetings and regular education sessions, sharing cases and learning alongside the rest of the team.

Most importantly, you wont be working in isolation. We place a strong emphasis on clinical supervision, mentoring and ongoing education, giving you the support to develop your confidence, broaden your general practice skills and progress through the FCP Roadmap and working towards becoming a prescribing paramedic. You'll be an integral part of the Mendlesham clinical team.
