Welcome to Rochdale Adult Care, part of the Rochdale’s award winning adult care Services department. It is an exciting time across Adult Care, as we embark and continue on our change and transformation journey to truly make a difference to the lives of our residents.

Our workforce is our biggest asset and a lot has been done which we are really proud of but there is a lot still to do. We are looking for amazing people who share our vision and values to join our team and have some fantastic opportunities for a motivated and forward thinking Social Worker to join one of our teams.

We currently have Social Work opportunities in these areas:

  • Prevention and Early Assessment
  • Hospital Discharge Flow Hub
  • Integrated Neighbourhood Teams
  • Preparing for Adulthood, Learning Disability and Autism.

Our Front Door and Prevention Team supports people at the earliest opportunity to maximize the effectiveness of early intervention and prevention. The Adult Front Door Service is the first point of contact for individuals seeking health, social care and wellbeing support and is responsible for Adult Care’s initial care, prevention and risk management response. The team consists of a range of practitioners including social workers, support planners, prevention workers and triage assistants with a focus on multi-agency collaboration to provide a person-centred response to all contacts to effectively support individuals and carers to live well, safely and as independently as possible.

Our integrated neighbourhood teams are at the heart of our adult care service, delivering and reviewing innovative services for our residents, helping to reduce health inequalities, enhance life and support independent living. We work across friendly, dynamic teams alongside our district nurse colleagues with a focus on partnership working to achieve best practice and desired outcomes for our residents. We take pride in everything we do to ensure our services continue to be of an excellent and high quality standard.

Our Hospital Discharge Flow Hub supports Rochdale residents with discharge arrangements, timely and safely to a suitable setting. We utilise various Discharge to Assess and re-ablement pathways to support individuals to maximise their independence away from the hospital setting, with a focus on discharge to the right place at the right time. The team is responsible for working with people to assess both the immediate and ongoing needs, in order to support a person in implementing their longer term care and support needs. The team is located within a central community based office but will support discharge planning across the various hospital sites in and out of the borough as part of a multi-agency team to facilitate effective, safe and timely discharges.

Why us?
