Senior Community Practitioner Intensive Home

6 days ago

Burnley, United Kingdom East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

We are looking for a dynamic health professional to join our established team to support patients at risk of health deterioration within their own home. This will require working across a Pennine Lancashire footprint to provide clinical support to the single point of access and respond to patients who are triaged and require a 2-hour urgent response.

You will initiate interventions by providing a holistic advanced assessment which may include non-medical prescribing and enhanced clinical skills to support patient safety and reduce risk.

Established in 2015, the service continues to evolve to meet the needs of a diverse population with the aim of providing complex clinical interventions within community settings.

The Intensive Home Support Service were pivotal in the set up and implementation of the Covid Virtual Ward in response to the Covid pandemic which has proved hugely successful and the development has subsequently been shortlisted for a HSJ award

The post holder will provide advanced clinical assessment, needs identification, planning, case management and co-ordination of care for people with long term conditions who have highly complex needs and co-morbidities.

The post-holder will promote partnership working to improve outcomes for patients with co-morbidity & long term conditions in order to reduce unplanned hospital admissions, reduce length of stay, facilitate seamless transition of care and provide post discharge support to prevent avoidable readmission to hospital.

East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust aims to deliver the highest quality care to patients. We employ dedicated staff, some of which have won awards for their work and are internationally renowned. With the support of our staff and the public, we have ambitious plans to continue to raise the standard of patient care and services.

An exciting opportunity has arisen in the Community and Intermediate Care Division to join our dynamic and forward-thinking services.

As patients are living longer with more complex needs, the NHS has adapted to meet this growing need; ensuring patients have more choice, equitable access to services, and their needs met in their usual place of residence. This allows for hospital admissions to be reduced, creating capacity within our hospitals and emergency departments, to ensure that patients’ needs are met at the right time, by the right person and in the right place.

ELHT & Pennine Lancashire are expanding their out of hospital services and growing their award-winning Intensive Home Support Service, including hospital at home pathways. IHSS has medical cover to support acute interventions: IV therapies, ultra sound scanning, ECG and point of care testing.

IHSS is an integrated multidisciplinary team operating 24/7 via varying shift patterns. This service is supported by a dedicated single point of access (SPoA) Intermediate Care Allocation Team (ICAT) comprising of social care coordinators and other health and social care professionals
