The qualified ACP role is banded at an 8A AFC grade following completion of a Level 7 academic pathway and successfully evidencing a clinical practice portfolio of workplace based assessments. Currently this is done utilising the NHS e-portfolio mapped to the Acute Medicine Speciality Capabilities Framework. For applicants who have completed the academic pathway then a timeline for completion of a clinical practice portfolio would be discussed. The Trainee ACP role is banded at a band 7 AFC grade for the duration of the training period, (see job description) with progression to an 8A on successful completion of the required academic element of the role and completion of the clinical portfolio of evidence. Non clinical hours are allocated weekly to QACP and TACP staff to support personal and professional development in the role, with an emphasis on Quality Improvement projects and Research. ### Main duties of the job The Hospital out of Hours ACP role is multi faceted. Shift leadership is undertaken on a rotational basis and involves the review, triage, allocation of the workload or discussion and advice to ward staff using the Nervecentre task management system for referrals made. Currently we receive an average of 11,000 referrals per month through the service. For reference, as of September 2026 all the trust systems will be done through Nervecentre. We also link in with our excellent Critical Care Outreach team and on occasions the expectation is that the HooH shift leader would also support the CCOT team with the "Marthas rule" call for concern calls made out of hours, with appropriate guidance and signposting as required. Whilst the clinical element of the role involves working as part of a multi-disciplinary team we have an expectation of individual, autonomous practice, safe in the knowledge that should escalation of clinical care be needed the team is staffed to support accordingly.
