We have expertise across a range of areas, for example, in working alongside people living with dementia (including increasing numbers of ‘younger adults’), complex neurological conditions, substance misuse, end of life support, physical disability, mental health, homelessness and learning difficulties.

We focus on prevention and strength-based working. Staff support people to maintain their independence through use of equipment, information, professional advice, and guidance as well as providing formal care and support where required.

As a Social Care Practitioner, you will provide person centred, outcome focused assessments, to identify the appropriate support required to enable our customers to make positive changes in their lives.

You will promote customer independence, choice, and well-being in the community, using universal services and support where appropriate.

Skills include completing Care Act Assessments, complex moving and handling skills, minor and major adaptation work**,** assessing fluctuating mental capacity, working with people at significant risk, crisis management, and working with people as part of safeguarding enquiries.

This is a challenging role, and you will be supported by the Leadership Team, Experienced Occupational Therapists, Social Workers as well as highly experienced peer Social Care Practitioners.

**About you**

You will hold a level 4 in Health and Social Care, equivalent or the ability to work towards this qualification, and have experience of working in a health or social care setting and have excellent communication skills.

The work is fast-paced, and you will need to have excellent communication skills and will be able to work collaboratively with multi professional teams.

The role requires the use of a computer-based recording system therefore skills in IT are essential, and knowledge of Liquid Logic would also be an advantage.

**Interview date to be confirmed on shortlisting.
