About the Role

Advanced Nurse Practitioners in Primary Care

Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ANPs) are registered nurses who have completed advanced clinical training, enabling them to assess, diagnose, treat, and manage patients autonomously — often performing many of the same clinical functions as a GP within primary care.

ANPs are among the most in-demand roles in primary care, particularly as ARRS funding has expanded PCN staffing budgets and practices look to extend access and manage patient demand.

  • Independent prescribing capability
  • Autonomous assessment & diagnosis
  • ARRS-eligible — reimbursed through PCN funding
  • GP surgery, PCN, OOH & urgent care settings
  • Locum and salaried positions UK-wide
