About the role
An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Glenrothes and North East Fife Hospital at Home (H@H) service for an experienced Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP). This role is pivotal in delivering safe, effective, and person-centred care to patients in their own homes, care homes, and other community settings. The post will primarily focus on the urgent and unscheduled care needs of the older adult population, including the complex treatment and management of acutely unwell, palliative, or frail individuals.
We are seeking candidates who are passionate about advanced clinical practice and committed to delivering high-quality care. ANP applicants must hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Practice at Masters level and be assessed as competent in this level of practice, including advanced clinical assessment, decision-making, and non-medical prescribing.
You will need excellent communication skills and the ability to work both autonomously and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team. The role requires initiative, sound clinical judgement, and the ability to travel across Fife in a timely manner to attend to acutely unwell patients in the community.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a service that is transforming how acute care is delivered outside hospital settings. You will be supported through clinical supervision, mentorship, and opportunities to contribute to service development, education, and research.
For informal enquiries, please contact Connie Henderson, Lead ANP at connie.henderson3@nhs.scot or Carol Galloway, Team Leader at carol.galloway@nhs.scot.

To work in the United Kingdom, there is a legal requirement for an individual to demonstrate that they have the relevant permission to work in the country. This permission is, without exception, granted by the UK Visa and Immigrations Service.
As part of the pre-employment checks for a preferred candidate, NHS Scotland Boards will check your entitlement to work in the UK. It can be evidenced through a number of routes including specific types of visa as well as EU settled and pre-settled status.

For specific types of post, if you do not have the necessary eligibility to work in the UK, it might be possible (though not guaranteed) to secure sponsorship via a UK Skilled Worker/Health & Care Worker Visa. However, this is only possible if the employer is a licenced Sponsor, and if the post does not fall below the current minimum salary threshold or ‘going rate’. Further information on these criteria can be foundhere.
It is ESSENTIAL that you have checked that you either already have an appropriate right to work in the UK or that the post would be eligible to be sponsoredBEFORE submitting your application form.

If there is any change to what is currently required, this will be confirmed by either the Hiring Manager or the Recruitment Team. For more details on these changes please visit: Disclosure Scotland Changes.
We offer flexible working and family-friendly policies and fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices.
