Summary
Every day people with chest, heart and stroke conditions are leaving hospital scared and alone. You can be part of our mission to make sure that there is no life half lived in Scotland.
By joining Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland (CHSS) as Community Support Services Geographic Manager (East) you can be the difference between people just surviving and really living.
You will be part of Scotland’s leading charity providing support to people with chest, heart and stroke conditions and Long Covid to live life to the full again. Our Community Healthcare Support Services model forms a nationwide network of local support groups, nurses, volunteers and one-to-one support teams helping families adjust to life with Long Covid, a heart or lung condition or after a stroke.
The postholder will have the responsibility to lead the delivery and ongoing development of CHSS community-based support services, as well as its evidence-based 6-week SMRC Supported Self-Management and 12-week Living Well with Aphasia programmes, with a focus on enabling people with our conditions to live with, and beyond, their new reality. Core to this will be the requirement of the postholder to manage the Community Support Service and Supported Self-Management offers and be a visible and vocal advocate for the charity that ensures our position as the key 3rd sector partner within geographic systems of health and social care. The active and continuous development of senior system relationships will underpin the delivery of the role and ensure the long-term success of the charity and the delivery of our No Life Half Lived Strategy.
CHSS also supports flexible recruitment through Working Families and we are “Happy to Talk Flexible Working”.
In line with our commitment to safeguarding, this role is subject to a PVG check. CHSS is committed to equality of opportunity and to providing a service which is free from unfair and unlawful discrimination. We therefore aim to ensure that no applicant, volunteer or member of staff is unfairly treated on the grounds of offending background.
