The Rural West Primary Care Network (PCN) is looking to recruit a second cardiovascular
disease (CVD) Care Co-ordinator, to work alongside the existing CVD Care Co-ordinator and
as part of our PCN’s wider team to enhance our friendly, busy network of practices. The
Network consists of two GP Partnerships in north Hampshire; Tadley Medical Partnership and
Watership Down Health, with surgeries in Kingsclere, Overton, Oakley and Tadley.
The main purpose of this role is to provide administrative support to patients across the Rural
West PCN with long-term Conditions (LTC); specifically, those people with cardiovascular
disease (CVD), high blood pressure, heart disease and strokes. This is a non-clinical role, but
the successful candidate will play a key role in proactively identifying and working with these
patients, their families and carers to improve the ongoing management of their condition.
The postholder will work closely with the GPs, nurses and the wider practice teams, to make
sure that patients with CVD receive the very best care and reviews according to individual
need. The role involves giving patients the opportunity for health reviews to manage and
improve their long-term health and wellbeing, as well as encouraging those less engaged.
This non-clinical role is administrative rather than patient facing, but patient contact by
telephone is a key element, as the role involves organising appointments directly with the
patients. The postholder will provide support to patients as a regular point of contact for CVD
related needs, as well as supporting the clinical teams as they provide patient care. This will
include managing blood pressure information coming into our sites.
The postholder will enable registered patients to access the services and support they require
to meet their health and wellbeing needs, helping to improve people’s quality of life. They will
work alongside our Social Prescribing link workers and Health and Wellbeing Coaches to
provide an all-encompassing approach to personalised care and enable people to navigate
through the health and care system. The postholder will also work with a diverse range of
people from different cultural and social backgrounds.
Applicants will need excellent administration, interpersonal and communication skills and be
organised, motivated and empathetic. The ability to work confidently and effectively in a varied
and sometimes challenging environment is essential. The postholder will preferably have
experience of working in a primary care setting, ideally in health, social care or other support
roles. Please see the Job Description and person specification on NHS Jobs for more detail.
The post is full time i.e. 37.5 hours per week, Mondays to Fridays and is predominantly surgery
based. It requires travel across the Network to the surgeries of both Partnerships, so flexibility
of working and access to private transport is essential.

Thursday 9th April 2026.
