Description Applications are invited for the position of Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) / Candidate Advanced Nurse Practitioner (cANP) Medical Oncology SACT Service within St. Vincent's University Hospital. Overview: The overall purpose of the post is to provide safe, timely, evidenced based nurse-led care to patients at an advanced nursing level. The ANP role is ideally suited to independently manage patients and thereby remove these patients from waiting lists, prevent admissions and promote preventative strategies (DOH, 2019). This involves undertaking and documenting a complete episode of patient care (assess, diagnose, plan, treat and discharge patients) according to collaboratively agreed protocols and scope of practice in the clinical setting; demonstrating advanced clinical and theoretical knowledge, critical thinking, clinical leadership and decision making skills. The advanced practice role demonstrates a high degree of core Acute Haematology and Oncology Management knowledge, skill and experience that is applied within the nurse-patient/client relationship to achieve optimal outcomes through critical analysis, problem solving and accurate decision-making (NMBI, 2017).
