The Advance Care Planning Practitioner supports patients, families and professionals to discuss and record future care preferences, particularly for people with serious illness, frailty or end-of-life needs. Requirements typically include a relevant clinical or health and social care qualification, current professional registration where applicable, experience in care planning or palliative care, and strong knowledge of consent, confidentiality and safeguarding. The successful candidate is expected to communicate sensitively, work independently across primary care settings, maintain accurate records, coordinate with multidisciplinary teams and promote person-centred decision-making. Empathy, emotional resilience, organisation and the ability to handle complex conversations are essential.
Local Primary Care GP Federation is a collaborative organisation supporting general practices and community healthcare services across the United Kingdom. GP federations typically bring together local practices to improve access, coordinate services and deliver care that may be difficult for individual surgeries to provide alone. Their work can include enhanced primary care, chronic disease management, preventative health programmes, urgent care, workforce development and support for integrated care initiatives. In this role, the federation is likely to work with GPs, nurses, community teams, hospices and social care providers to improve advance care planning and ensure that patients' wishes are understood and respected. The organisation is expected to value partnership working, clinical quality, equality, safeguarding and practical improvements to patient experience.
