**Role Responsibility**:
The post holder would be expected to undertake home visits as well as meet clients in the community to support them to engage with our services

You’ll coordinate individual treatment journeys and offer the people-centred care they come to us for. That means you’ll also build relationships with families and associates to make sure each person gets the support they require.
