We opened in February 2023 with around 1,200 patients and now care for close to 4,000, with 80 to 120 new patients asking to join every month. We're growing because patients need us. You'll join a team of about 19 across Stafford, London and Exeter, led by experienced nurse prescribers and supported by a specialist multidisciplinary team. We put compassionate, evidence-informed care, patient safety and good clinical governance first. ## The role The patient pathway: 1. Step 1 ### Video history You assess eligibility, then review the patient's GP summary and baseline bloods. 2. Step 2 ### Consent appointment A one-hour, face-to-face appointment in clinic covering benefits, risks and alternatives. 3. Step 3 ### Prescribing You start treatment after the in-person appointment, within our clinical protocols. 4. Step 4 ### Follow-up Six-monthly reviews for the first two years, then yearly once stable, including blood results and dose adjustments. A typical day is about four patient appointments, alternating with admin time. You'll spend 2 days a week at our London clinic and 3 working from home. This isn't a fully remote role. ## Key responsibilities Once signed off on our protocols, you will: - Run video history and eligibility assessments, taking medical, medication and family histories. - Lead face-to-face consent appointments, including physical observations and a clear explanation of benefits, risks and alternatives. - Prescribe, start and adjust gender-affirming hormone therapy within our clinical protocols. - Review and interpret blood results, escalating anything that needs further investigation. - Monitor treatment response, side effects and complications at follow-up. - Give clear patient education, health promotion and safety-netting. - Write accurate clinical records and letters to GPs, including shared care. - Recognise clinical, psychological and safeguarding concerns and escalate them. - Take part in clinical governance, audit, training and CPD. With experience, you can manage a growing share of the patient pathway independently. ## Pay The salary we advertise is the salary we offer. - Salary: £60,000 to £65,000 For nurses with a V300 (or equivalent) prescribing qualification. - Where you start in the range Depends on your experience, and we'll explain your figure in writing.
