With plenty of primary care experience, you could be involved in anything from undertaking a wide variety of screening, assessments, examinations, and tests as well as answering emergency bells and potentially being the first person to attend an emergency.

You will be eager to learn and develop, as well as having the initiative to bring new ideas and opinions on how to improve the healthcare services.
