This is a senior GP role that supports clinicians across Integrated Urgent Care (IUC) and the System Clinical Assessment Service (CAS), alongside patient consultations.
You’ll be the steady, senior clinical voice colleagues turn to when decisions are complex, capacity is tight, and patients need the right care quickly. You’ll help keep urgent care flowing safely, with a clear focus on supporting community management wherever possible and avoiding unnecessary hospital admissions.
You’ll work closely with clinical and operational colleagues, including joined‑up leadership with the Shift Manager. You can work solely as a Clinical Coordinator or build a wider portfolio across Severnside and BrisDoc services.
Working as a Clinical Coordinator (CC) is varied and interesting, with lots of interaction with clinical and operational colleagues in IUC and System CAS, plus consulting with patients and healthcare professionals.
You’ll offer accessible clinical advice and support across elements of Severnside IUC, including:
- Mental Health Integrated Access Partnership (IAP): supporting mental health colleagues with physical health assessments and prescribing
- System Clinical Assessment Service (CAS): a multidisciplinary team supporting remote clinical assessment of patients who might otherwise be directed to emergency department or ambulance dispositions
- Weekday Professional Line: mainly adult medical admission avoidance, plus some patient consultations
- Covid Medicine Delivery Unit (CMDU) the remote assessment of patients referred for consideration of covid antiviral medications.
- Frailty-ACE (Assessment & Coordination for Emergency and urgent care): assessing frail patients who might otherwise be conveyed to hospital and coordinating community pathways where appropriate
- Out of Hours (OOH): telephone/remote consulting, face‑to‑face appointments and home visits
Portfolio option: work solely as a Clinical Coordinator or undertake Clinical Coordinator shifts as part of a wider portfolio in Severnside or BrisDoc’s practice services.
