Advanced Nurse Practitioner, Candidate, Kidney Supportive Care Services, University Hospital
Details of Service Cork University Hospital (CUH) has approximately 800 beds and this will increase further to 1,000 beds on completion of the transfer of additional services to the CUH campus. CUH currently employs approximately 4,571 (WTE) staff of multiple professions and is the primary teaching hospital for the Faculty of Health and Science in University College Cork (UCC). UCC is the Academic partner of the South/South West Hospital Group. CUH has very strong relationships with each of the six schools within the Science Faculty of UCC and this is a key area for future development to maximise the opportunities for both the service and academia. CUH is a recommended Major Trauma Centre for the Republic of Ireland due to the wide range of specialties delivered by the hospital – including Neurosciences, Cardiac Services, Orthopaedics, General Surgery, Renal, Internal Medicine, Vascular, Ophthalmology, Urology, Plastic Surgery, Maxillary-Facial, Paediatrics, Intensive Care, Oncology, Haematology, Obstetrics, Gynaecology, Neonatology and Emergency Medicine. CUH is the tertiary referral centre for the HSE Southern area, and the supra regional area of Limerick, Clare, Tipperary, Waterford and Kilkenny. CUH therefore acts as a regional centre for secondary and tertiary care for the catchment population of approx. 550,000 served by the HSE Southern area and a supra-regional centre for a total a population of 1.2 million. Six Health Regions have been established within the HSE, on the basis of the geographical boundaries agreed by the Government in July 2019 and they will be operational from 2024. Each Health Region will be tasked with population specific planning resourcing and delivery of health and social care services for the needs of its unique population. This will result in improved accountability and governance in terms of finance and performance, while also bringing decision-making closer to the frontline. Health Regions will enable and empower staff to provide services that are: • Integrated, locally planned and delivered • Easier to access and navigate • Available closer to home Health Regions are geographically-based units with clearly defined populations. They align community and hospital services within specific areas. The HSE will retain a strong but leaner central organisation, with more service provision developed at a local level. The HSE South West health region will manage and deliver all public health and social care services in Cork and Kerry. HSE South West includes all hospital and community healthcare services in the region. This includes: • South / South West Hospital Group S/SWHG • Cork Kerry Community Healthcare CKCH • Midlands Louth Meath Community Health Organisation • Community Healthcare Organisation Dublin North City and County The Department of Population and Public Health is also now aligned with this health region Services in the South West health region: HSE Services working within this region include: • Acute Hospitals • Primary care services • Community services • Social care services • Health and social care professionals • Voluntary sector services South / South West Hospital Group and Cork Kerry Community Healthcare will become part of HSE South West health region from 3rd March 2025. Purpose of the Post The main purpose of the post is to develop the job description and supporting documentation under the direction of the Health Care Provider’s Advanced Practice Stakeholder Governance Group, to enable the individual nurse to meet the NMBI Criteria for Registration as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner as set out in Advanced Practice (Nursing) Standards and Requirements (NMBI, 2017). The individual will undertake the academic preparation and develop the clinical and leadership skills, competencies and knowledge required to meet the criteria to be registered as a RANP with NMBI. The scope of the cANP role must reflect the incremental development of expertise and as such, the cANP cannot deliver care as an autonomous practitioner. The individual will complete and submit the necessary documentation for registration as an RANP with NMBI. The value of the nursing contribution as a distinct profession must be safeguarded and articulated in the development of new services led by advanced nurse practitioners, complementing rather than replacing current services delivered by doctors (NMBI, 2017 p.9). The overall purpose of the post is to provide safe, timely, evidenced based nurse-led care to patients at an advanced nursing level. 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 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). Central to this is the provision of quality care, a safe environment and processes for patients by the use of evidence based clinical guidelines that address patient expectations, promote wellness and evaluate care given. The role will provide clinical leadership and professional scholarship in order to develop nursing practice and health policy at local, regional and national level. The role will contribute to nursing research to shape and advance nursing practice, education and health care policy at local, national and international levels. The role of the cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will provide support to patients reaching the end of their dialysis treatment journey whilst helping assess the best possible clinical pathway and treatment option for the patient. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will undertake continuing assessment of prescribed treatment in collaboration with dialysis/conservative treatment teams as required. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will work in conjunction regionally with cANP's/ RANP’s from other Renal and Palliative service sites in the delivery and support of clinical care to patients. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will collaborate in providing care to patients accepted under the Renal or Renal Supportive Care services within the emergency department or adjacent units that potentially require assessment for progression to a more conservative treatment plan. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will work regionally with other health care sites as the service expands to provide a more collaborative and comprehensive support network to eligible patients. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will operate in both hospital and community settings, participating in community outreach clinics in conjunction with Palliative and Renal services and participating in home visits of eligible patients when necessary and provide the appropriate referrals. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will support the establishment of a Supportive Care Register within the group. The cANP Kidney Supportive Care Services will coordinate monthly MDT meetings in conjunction with both services. Informal Enquiries We welcome enquiries about the role.

Renal Department CUH The Renal Department in Cork University Hospital is a large referral centre in the South of Ireland for the Specialties of Nephrology, in-centre Dialysis, Home Dialysis and Transplantation. The department has a major commitment to the provision of both in-patient and out-patient care and a fully integrated programme of Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) for patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD). The renal multidisciplinary team works collaboratively to provide the highest level of care available. The team members consist of consultant Nephrologists, medical staff, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Clinical Nurse Managers, Dieticians, Pharmacists, Physiotherapists, Clinical engineers, Staff Nurses and Health Care Assistants. Kidney Supportive Care Service The Kidney Supportive Care Service (KSC) is a new service set up regionally as a collaboration between Palliative Care and Renal Services. Cork University Hospital is the proposed primary care delivery site in conjunction with Marymount, operating as an additional site for this newly developing service. KSC is an approach to care that aims to improve the quality of life for people for whom kidney disease, either directly or indirectly, substantially impacts their well-being, treatment options, or access to care. KSC was developed in response to the complex physical and psychosocial needs of individuals that may not be fully met by traditional models of kidney care. Globally, an increasing proportion of people with CKD are elderly and live with multiple long-term conditions, which are associated with worse morbidity and mortality outcomes. This population can often experience high symptom burden, functional limitations, and shortened life expectancy, whether or not they initiate kidney replacement therapy (KRT). A comprehensive approach dedicated to addressing unmet needs by integrating palliative care practices into kidney care is essential. KSC aims to achieve this with an emphasis on shared decision-making, advance care planning, family and caregiver support, and early identification and impeccable assessment and treatment of pain and other physical, psychosocial, and spiritual problems. KSC is a key component of integrated care for people with CKD and can be delivered through the continuum of an individual’s illness, concurrently with treatments for kidney disease and comorbidities, including KRT.
