Due to an increasing demand in our PW1 Home Care Services we need a temporary Social Worker to help complete assessments for people on temporary home care services and determine what services they need in the longer term to meet their care and support needs and then commission the on-going services. This will then help to free up capacity within the temporary bridging services so that more people can be discharged from the acute and community bedded facilities.
This is a targeted piece of work for the Countywide Urgent Care/Discharge to Assess Teams. The Urgent Care Discharge to Assess Team's cover North, Mid and South Nottinghamshire Areas' and service the acute hospitals such as Bassetlaw, Kings Mills, Queens medical centre, City Hospital and Lings Bar. However the people that require assessing will have returned home from one of these institutions.
There is an opportunity for Home Working and we operate a hybrid model where being office based some of time and completing home visits will be an expectation for the role.
Caritas Recruitment is acting as an Employment Business in relation to this vacancy.
