Contract to start on 18-03-24 until 10-06-24 with a possible extension.

**PRIMARY JOB FUNCTION**

The Disabled Children’s Family Support Team supports disabled children / young people and their families through their child in need plans.

Their role is to act as allocated worker reviewing the child in need plans and ensuring that they meet the assessed need.

FSRP’s support parents in poverty, with mental health problems, victims of domestic violence and where English is a second language to access their rights to benefits and appropriate housing.

The FSRPs hold a caseload of disabled children and their families to ensure that they have the right support in place to meet their needs, that the child, parents, support provider and the professional network are working towards agreed SMART goals linked to their EHC plans.

**DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES**

Organise child in need reviews for children and young people, which are usually in the schools where the professional network can attend.

The review process begins with gathering information from the child, parents and professionals about the current needs and progress towards the goals in the last CIN plan.

FSRP’s attend and contribute to Team around the Child meetings and Child in Need Reviews.

They are responsible for completing minutes, uploading these to LCS and circulating to the attendees.

After the review the FSRPs would work with the child, parents and the professional network to develop new goals and identify the affordable support in the individual budget to meet the family’s needs.

The FSRPs will ensure that goals are SMART and personalised to the child/young person and their family.

They usually including access to leisure, at least one developmental goal and a regular short break for the carers.

FSRPs can support families by costing a number of plans and highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the different options.

FSRPs ensure that families have a clear understanding of personal budgets and their options for managing this process, including direct payments.

The FSRP’s work through the direction of a DTM to submit the plan to the EHCMB and make a referral that contains a summary of needs and the rationale for the proposed plan.

Calculate and structure payments for support plans, advise parents on the use of the pre-paid card and ensure the parent signs the pre-paid card agreement.
