An exciting opportunity has risen within the Urgent Care & Reablement service, for Band 2 Support Workers to join a community based multi-disciplinary team, providing enablement support and rehabilitation services for patient’s presenting with an acute deterioration in health and/or functional ability.

You will work out of a multi-professional base so there is opportunity for joint working [including Nurses, Care Co-ordinator, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists, Support Workers and other associated health care professionals] and collaborative learning across a range of Health Professionals who are supporting and delivering high standards of clinical care.
