Advanced Clinical Practitioners (ACP)
Lorraine Purcell
Advanced Nurse Practitioner
Lorraine is an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and started with the practice in April 2022, keen to continue to develop her role in General Practice.
Her nursing career started in 1996 when she began training to become a registered nurse, then completing an honours degree and a prescribing course. She has continued to develop her knowledge and skills, and in October 2023 gained her Masters in Advanced Clinical Practice at Staffordshire University.
The ANP role is very rewarding and interesting and includes examining patients with a variety of symptoms, then assessing, and making a diagnosis. Lorraine is then able to treat with appropriate advice or prescription as needed, or refer as necessary for patients requiring specialised care and assessment. There is excellent support from the GP’s as needed to support the role.
