    Green Vale Health Primary Care Network is a newly formed PCN in Central Bedfordshire. Our mission is to improve health and care and to meet everyday health and care needs for people by connecting primary care systems and using creative thinking to develop, improve and support great local services.

    Our PCN is split over two sites, Flitwick Surgery and Marston Forest Healthcare in modern facilities. We have a combined list size of approx. 25,000 patients with some 243 care home beds. We are not one of the larger PCNs, but this smaller patient number allows us to provide first class healthcare and the ability to target diverse healthcare needs.

    The sites are only a short distance apart (5 miles) but service the main population areas of Flitwick, Marston Moretaine and Cranfield as well as several surrounding villages in a rural setting, with Bedford, Milton Keynes and Luton only a few miles away.

    All our vacancies are compliant with the standard NHS Terms and Conditions of employment and inclusion in the NHS Pension Scheme. Salaries are dependent on skills and experience, but we would expect them to be within the AfC bandings for the role.
