Children & Families - Family Practitioner - Ref 6574
2 months ago
Location: Totnes and Newton Abbot
An exciting opportunity with Devon County Council has become available with our Children and Families South Team in a role as a Family Practitioner.
Based in Devon, you will provide support to targeted families with multiple and complex needs providing practical help and appropriate trained interventions, both during times of crisis and, for certain families, as part of a long-term support plan.
As a Family Practitioner you have a crucial role in establishing and maintaining high quality relationships with other professionals delivering earlier and quicker services to families along with providing assistance, encouragement, and support to help the family transform.
If you are an excellent communicator, assertive and confident, we would love to hear from you.
This will be a combination of hybrid/office - 2/3 days expected to be in the office a week.
Devon is a mostly rural county, and as our localities cover a large area and accordingly our candidates can be expected to travel some distance between visits. In some areas, candidates will not be able to rely on walking, cycling or public transport to make visits. We therefore require candidates to have access to their own suitable transport, subject to reasonable adjustments that may need to be made in line with the Equality Act 2010.
About Us:
Devon's Children's Front Door has been on a journey of improvement, marked by significant progress over the past seven months. Our focus has been on fostering a culture that prioritises the safety and well-being of children and families, streamlining services for easier access, and enhancing collaboration with partner agencies. We take pride in our dedicated workforce and the positive impact we've made on families in Devon.
Key Achievements:
83% permanent staffing across the service Streamlined processes for improved effectiveness Re-launch of the professional consultation line Strengthened partnerships with stakeholders Enhanced data system for tracking and improvement Utilisation of audits for identifying areas of growth
In return for the vital contribution that you make, we have some fantastic employee benefits available, including:
