Luke Craker – Urgent Care Practitioner 

Devon Out-of-Hours  

With a background as a paramedic, Luke took on an apprenticeship to become an Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP). Supported by the Out-of-Hours (OOH) team at Practice Plus IUC, he balances his studies, work, and family life, while gaining invaluable hands-on experience. He says:  

“The best part of an apprenticeship is learning on the job while maintaining a work-life balance. I have a dedicated mentor, protected study time, and financial support. The experience has been invaluable, giving me real-world patient interactions and broadening my clinical skills. If you’re looking to advance your career in urgent care, Practice Plus Group is the place to be.”
