Place Based Physical Activity Clinical Champion, Oxfordshire

The role of the Place-Based PACC is to organise and deliver clinician to clinician training on physical activity in clinical care to other NHS health care professionals, which supports them to improve patient care and outcomes. Supported by a national team and infrastructure, this is an exciting opportunity to work as part of a Sport England project evaluating a place-based approach.

As an experienced AHP, Nurse or Midwife, you will have current associated health care registration and very recent or ongoing clinical experience based within the Oxfordshire region. You will also ideally hold a teaching qualification or equivalent experience and demonstrate highly competent training and facilitation skills.

Proven knowledge of the role of physical activity as a tool for primary and secondary prevention and management of long-term conditions is essential, and a knowledge of principles and practice of public health including health needs assessment and evidence base strategies to address health inequalities is desirable.

he Place-Based PACC will work closely with both Active Oxfordshire and the central PACC team, make use of their own networks and build relationships with local and regional stakeholders and organisations, developing a local online community of practice and encourage healthcare professionals in Oxfordshire to continue to develop their knowledge and skills.
