About the Role
The Acute Response Team within Intermediate Care is pleased to offer this exciting opportunity as part of our Home First approach across Carmarthenshire.
This Health Care Support Worker role has been developed to provide short-term, intensive rehabilitation at home for patients, enabling them to return home from hospital sooner and providing access to care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The post will deliver delegated care across a range of disciplines as part of a team-based approach to delivering holistic, patient-centred care.
The key aim of the role is to support individuals to achieve independence through the delivery of an individualised plan of care as determined by the team.
We are seeking a motivated individual who is committed to making a positive contribution to the lives of the people we support and has a 'can do' approach to their work.
Community experience is desirable, but not essential, as full induction and training will be provided.
The successful candidate will need to communicate effectively with other team members at all times across all integrated teams and demonstrate a flexible approach to the needs of the service across the 7 days.
Main Responsibilities
The Team offers:
Support and advice from the multidisciplinary team for patients and carers.
Identified goals to increase independence with functional activities following discharge home, including goals with washing, dressing, functional mobility, meals, or any goals identified by the MDT.
Continuation and promotion of exercise programmes if prescribed by a physiotherapist.
Support to carers on initial discharge by supporting the patient with functional tasks.
As a Health Care Support Worker, your duties will include working alongside OTs, Physiotherapists, Nurses, GPs, Dieticians, and other health and social care professionals, undertaking delegated tasks and providing planned care and support to individuals to help them remain in their own homes.
The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post, and English and/or Welsh speakers are equally welcome to apply.
