Job summary
An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Long-term condition nurse or ACP.
This role will play a key role in delivering anticipatory, personalised care for patients living with long-term conditions and frailty across community and care home settings. With a clinical background in managing conditions such as diabetes, COPD, heart failure, and multimorbidity, the postholder will reduce avoidable deterioration, support independent living, and improve quality of life through holistic assessment, care coordination, and early intervention. Working within an integrated multidisciplinary team, the nurse will champion continuity, equity, and proactive planning particularly for vulnerable and housebound cohorts.
One of the main aims of the proactive care team is to help reduce unplanned hospital admissions and A&E attendances.
As an autonomous practitioner, the successful candidate will ideally be a non-medical prescriber, able to demonstrate critical thinking and decision-making relating to long term conditions.
We welcome applications from individuals who enjoy providing outstanding patient care, have a keen interest in being part of a team, striving to improve patient experience and outcomes, with excellent communication and IT skills.
We are also happy to consider applications from individuals who are already employed by other NHS organisations and explore secondment opportunities for the right candidate with that organisation.
Main duties of the job
Clinical Practice
- Identify and stratify patients with moderate to severe frailty using validated tools (e.g. eFI, Rockwood)
- Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments, including cognition, mobility, nutrition, and social support
- Apply specialist knowledge in managing long-term conditions, such as Diabetes, Respiratory Disease and/or cardiovascular conditions.
- Develop and review personalised care and support plans in collaboration with patients, families, and MDTs
- Monitor for early signs of deterioration and intervene to prevent crisis or hospital admission
- Facilitate advance care planning, DNACPR discussions, and end-of-life care coordination
Coordination & Collaboration
- Work closely with care home staff, community matrons, geriatricians, ARRS roles, and social care teams
- Participate in MDT meetings and contribute to integrated neighbourhood team (INT) working
- Liaise with voluntary sector partners and social prescribing link workers to address non-clinical needs
Quality & Improvement
- Maintain accurate, timely documentation in shared care records and contribute to PCN dashboards
- Use data to identify equity gaps and target interventions for low-uptake or high-risk cohorts
- Contribute to service evaluation, patient feedback, and continuous improvement initiatives
- Support education and training for care home staff and carers around frailty and LTC management

Help Us Strengthen Primary Care This Winter
We are looking for an enthusiastic and patient-centred GP to join our Primary Care Network (PCN) on a six-month fixed-term contract from October to March, helping us increase clinical capacity during the busy winter period.
This is a unique opportunity to work across our network of nine friendly GP practices, providing additional clinical support where it is needed most while enjoying a flexible role designed around both service need and work-life balance.

- Full-time or part-time hours.
- School-hour working or Traditional full-day sessions.
We know that working in 9 different practices may be challenging so we could have more than 1 GP sharing the role so each GP spending time in fewer practices. Or the GP spending blocks of time within individual practices to build familiarity and continuity before moving to another practice.
Our priority is to create a role that is manageable, enjoyable and sustainable.
About the Role
Working alongside experienced multidisciplinary teams, you will:
- Deliver high-quality GP consultations.
- Support practices with increased winter demand a mix of routine and urgent appointments
- Build relationships with practice teams and patients.
What We're Looking For
We welcome applications from GPs who:
- Hold full GMC registration with a licence to practise.
- Are included on the NHS England GP Performers List.
- Have experience within Somerset
- Are adaptable and keen to experience different practice environments.
- Value high-quality patient care and teamwork.
What We Offer
- A genuinely flexible approach to working patterns.
- The opportunity to shape the role around your availability.
- A supportive network of experienced practice teams.
- Variety without excessive movement between practices.
- The chance to experience different practice settings while developing lasting professional relationships.
- A rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to primary care in Bridgwater Bay during the winter months.
If you're looking for a flexible GP role that offers variety, supportive colleagues and the opportunity to help practices meet increased winter demand, we want to hear from you.
For an informal discussion about the role and the different ways it could be structured, please get in touch.
