We have a diverse and multi-skilled workforce with supportive GP partners and admin team. We work in great premises in the Fishponds area of Bristol and are part of the FABB Primary Care Network with neighbouring practices, Air Balloon Surgery and Fishponds Family Practice.
Main duties of the job
Ideally candidates will have experience in primary care and this would include:
Chronic disease management, adult and child vaccinations and immunisations, wound management and general treatment room care. We have a good skill mix within our current team and so could develop someone who may not have all of the above.
We provide some enhanced access hours and so flexibility and a willingness to work very occasional weekend shifts is essential.
