- engaging patients, and using health-coaching techniques, to support them to take an active role in their health and wellbeing.
- supporting practices where necessary, including NHS Health Checks, Smoking Cessation, and outreach programmes.
- helping to raise the local population’s awareness of the support groups and the opportunities available to assist them in achieving their health and wellbeing goals.
- working in partnership with clinical and non-clinical colleagues, management support and the wider PCN, to ensure the role delivers the best possible outcomes for our patients.
- be an experienced health and wellbeing professional, confident to deliver motivation, support, and advice to a range of patients with diverse health needs.
- be kind, reflective and self-aware who recognises what matters to patients.
- have knowledge in dealing with patients who have long-term conditions and a lack of knowledge, or skills, to improve and manage their own health and wellbeing effectively.
- be experienced in delivering personalised care plans.
- be confident to write concise, accurate and timely bespoke care assessments, alongside a multi-disciplinary team, to improve patient health across our community.
- be adept in encouraging patient activation.
- have completed a four-day PCI accredited health coaching training course or be willing to complete one prior to taking referrals.
- have completed Tier 1 level of practice/expertise for health and wellbeing coaches or willing and supported to do so.
- have excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
- have strong local knowledge, to promote local support networks and services in our community.

- have relevant qualification in health and wellbeing/mental health or physical activity.
- possess experience of health promotion or health behaviour change work with individuals and community groups.
