Team Objectives: The primary focus of the team is to engage in initiatives within the Learning Disability and/or Autism Programme. This includes facilitating the discharge of individuals from prolonged hospital stays, necessitating specialized placements, and addressing cases governed by the Mental Health Act 1983. The team also collaborates with commissioners, healthcare professionals, and the ICB Learning Disability and/or Autism Programme to avert hospital admissions and assist in managing community placement challenges.

Additional Requirements: Candidates must possess a valid driver's license and access to a vehicle for work-related purposes. In cases where disability prevents this, a taxi service will be provided. Registration with Social Work England is mandatory.

Benefits:

  • Access to the latest technology for flexible working
