Crynodeb

We are looking for a motivated individual, with a strong understanding of safeguarding, and who understands the complexities of undertaking assessments in adults who have experienced violence. A positive, can do 'attitude', a commitment to changing care for this extremely vulnerable patient group, and a desire to communicate with a wide variety of partners and stakeholders is essential.

The Band 6 Serious Violence Practitioner will hold a caseload and work with the patients in a range of settings, including face-to-face in the emergency department, on hospital wards, via telephone, in group contexts and in the community. They will promote their personal, health and social development by undertaking a holistic assessment and supporting a personalised care plan.

St George’s, Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals and Health Group cares for a population of four million people in South West London and North East Surrey. Our sites include St George’s Hospital, one of 11 major trauma centres in the UK and the largest healthcare provider and major teaching hospital in the area; St Helier Hospital, home to the South West Thames Renal and Transplantation Unit and Queen Mary's Hospital for Children; and Epsom Hospital, home to the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre (SWLEOC).

After years of collaboration, our two Trusts became a hospitals group in 2021. While remaining as two separate Trusts, being a hospitals group will help us to collaborate more closely on research, and the development, education, and training of our 17,000-strong workforce.

On a day-to-day basis the Serious Violence Practitioner is responsible for the clinical governance of the service and identifies areas for quality improvement and ensures adverse trends are identified, reported and managed. This will involve collecting data and being involved in shaping the projects future.



The Serious Violence Practitioner is a key player in delivering system change within the organisation including taking a lead on teaching around inclusion health and violence within the organisation. This expectation for this role would be on site with community outreach as needed.

In detail the service aims to:



· effectively engage the patient in all relevant services / support,

· maximise the benefit of the attendance / admission for the patient from a health and social care perspective,

· link the patient into all necessary health and social care and support pending discharge,

· advocate for the patient to receive assessment, treatment or services when this is required

· safeguard patients effectively

· ensure a safe and effective discharge to accommodation (where this is possible)

· stop the revolving door

· reduce re-offending

· reduce and prevent violence

· support those vulnerable of violence
