Summary
We have an exciting opportunity for an Integrated Community Manager to join our team leading the Rapid Therapy, Discharge to Assess Nursing teams and support workers within the Derby City locality.
The role will include leading a community team made up of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses, support workers and admin staff who work together to provide Urgent Community Response and Discharge to Assess Services in Derby.
We are also currently formally integrating these teams with the Derby City Council services who also provide discharge to assess and urgent community response to create a new Community First service. The successful applicant will have the opportunity to contribute to and lead on aspects of this work and be a key part of this exciting development.
Although the post is substantive, we would welcome applications from people looking for a secondment opportunity.
As well as providing inspiring and supportive day to day operational management, there will also be lots of scope to participate in service development and transformational change, particularly around the integration of DCHS services with Derby City Council.
The ICM role will be pivotal in working with the Integrated Discharge Team based at Royal Derby Hospital and with the Acute Home Visiting Services based out of the Local Navigation Hub.
The post is open to qualified Nurses, Occupational Therapists or Physiotherapists.
It is an ideal opportunity for an experienced integrated team leader to make a first step up to ICM level or possibly an already established ICM looking to broaden their skills and experience.
The post holder will work very closely with the managers who cover Home First (the City Council discharge to assess teams) and Hospital to Home (the hospital social work team for Derby City) and the Integrated Community Managers who manage the core and rapid services across Derby City, as well as county-wide, with peers who meet regularly for support and project development work.
Mentoring and leadership development will be supported.
You will be highly motivated, enthusiastic, have excellent communication and leadership skills and have a current working knowledge of the integrated care agenda.
You will be passionate about our services, creating a high-performance culture that delivers exemplary patient care and works within the principles of the DCHS Way.
DCHS services are currently a key contributor to the integrated care agenda and are actively working to create truly integrated services with our partners putting the patients and their carers at the heart of everything we do across Derby and Derbyshire.
Your role will be working within DCHS to ensure our staff are engaged and motivated by the changes and that you work in close liaison with our commissioning, social care, primary, secondary care colleagues and other partners to redesign pathways of care.
