Randstad are working alongside our Doncaster based client to support with the recruitment of an experienced Qualified Social Worker to join their Hospital Discharge team.
...
The successful candidate will provide a high quality, integrated, effective social work service to adults and carers in accordance with the Hospital Discharge and Community Support Guidance 2022, Care Act 2014 statutory requirements, including safeguarding concerns, Mental Capacity Act 2005, local policy, procedures and guidance.
The team works both within the acute setting at Hospital and across the various discharge pathways to assess ongoing long term needs. The ethos of Home First should be considered promoting well being and independence to ensure people are supported to gain or regain stability and control in their lives and to do things that matter most to them.
The successful candidate will need to be able to work autonomously using initiative to manage their own complex caseload. The role will involve undertaking holistic, strengths based assessments with adults, carers and families to help them make informed choices and decisions, enabling them to clarify and express their needs, manage risk and contribute to service planning. You will provide written and verbal records and reports which are concise, factual and informative based on analysis of evidence which can be used within the legal context and where necessary give evidence in court in relation to care or other proceedings. You will use evidence based practice and a strengths based conversation to identify need and take appropriate action which is outcome focused. Progress made towards meeting outcomes will reviewed in a timely manner following discharge from hospital with an expectation that the level of need will reduce following the re-ablement support received.
