Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) Ardach Health Centre
Ardach is seeking an Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP). Our practice is a friendly but effective, semi-rural practice situated along the Moray coast. Based in our purpose-built health centre, we provide care for over 9000 patients within Buckie and the surrounding coastal areas.
We are an innovative team with a track record for pioneering changes that improve how we deliver care to our patients. With our “Digital Ardach” vision, we have led Grampian in video consultations, adopted e-consult asynchronous consultation and are dedicated to continuing to evolve.
Our team includes 5 GP partners, 2 Salaried GPs, 3 ANPs, a nurse consultant and a highly skilled practice nursing team. We are fortunate to have an extended pharmacy team, a first contact physiotherapist, a frailty/dementia nurse and a professional administration team. Additionally, we work closely with our district nursing team and other community colleagues on site.
Ardach is a training practice for students, FYs and GPSTs. We enjoy shared responsibility for our local community hospital, with care of elderly consultant ward rounds and outreach. Over the years, we have developed close working relationships with other secondary care colleagues.
We would be happy to negotiate working days and sessions with the right candidate around their interests, family or other commitments. As a forward-thinking practice this may also be able to include some remote working.
We welcome any enquiries to Dr Jamie MacDonald, GP Partner james.macdonald5@nhs.scot or Andrew Whiteside, Practice Manager, Andrew.whiteside@nhs.scot 0345 099 7200
