Fixed-term/Secondment to the Safeguarding Families Together team. This new model brings together key skilled professionals to support the family with their needs including mental health and ultimately hopefully by working in a wrap around effect with other different services it will ultimately reduce the number of children who are taken into care.
It means social workers and adult professionals can focus on doing what they are trained to do, without getting bogged down in bureaucracy and paperwork. Shared Responsibility & Professional Support
It also means that the responsibility for a family is shared among a team of professionals, reducing the risk placed on any one individual. Instead, social workers, Child and Family Workers, domestic abuse practitioners & officers, recovery workers, mental health practitioners and psychologists all work closely together to support families and keep children safe. All workers participate in group supervision and contribute to analysis and decision making.
The SFT Families together team aims to keep the highest risk children and families in Dorset together safely, improve health and educational outcomes for the children and reduce physical and emotional harm in families.
The SFT teams are made up of social care practitioners and adult specialists to work with parents in relation to domestic abuse, mental health and substance misuse.
Our approach is to support families using a technique of motivational interviewing which is designed to empower and engage parents to make the positive changes needed to achieve improved outcomes for their children and their own wellbeing. Motivational Interviewing training will be provided . By meeting the complex needs of the adults, we can reduce the risk to children.
The SFT Teams will include a range of specialists who will work alongside our Social Workers and Child and Family Workers . This is a fixed term role and for those with current NHS service, the role will be offered on a secondment basis only. At Dorset HealthCare we're on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We're a dynamic, forward looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.
We do things differently here - it's one of the reasons the CQC rated us 'outstanding' in 2019. It's also why 95% of patients across our services say they have a good or very good experience of our services and 89% of staff feel they can really make a difference. Whether you're looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.
