About you...
You will be an experienced and passionate Social Worker who is registered with Social Work England. To be successful in this role, you will bring at least two years of experience working within statutory social services, ideally in a local authority setting.
We are looking for professionals who demonstrate a thorough knowledge of current legislation, policy, and best practice in social work. You will be confident in your decision-making, committed to delivering high-quality outcomes and able to work both independently and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team.
A positive and proactive attitude is essential. If you are motivated, solution-focused and ready to make a real difference in people’s lives, we would love to hear from you.
About the team...
Our Adult Social Care service is composed of highly professional and supportive multidisciplinary teams. We have a “can do” and “no wrong door” ethos. Our social care teams work together as one service and go the extra mile to ensure our residents have the right support.
We work in close partnership with health services and other agencies to support people in the community, helping to prevent unnecessary hospital admissions. When hospital care is required, we ensure individuals are only admitted when necessary and are supported to return home as quickly and safely as possible. We also have a range of early intervention and rehabilitation services that focus on keeping people in their own homes.
Regular multidisciplinary forums are held, meaning our residents can have easy access to health and social care services that talk to each other, to provide holistic support when needed.
We know there can be pressures working in Adult Social Care, so we make sure our staff are well supported. You will receive regular supervision and access to training. We have a strong focus on supporting our staff to learn, grow and develop to achieve their potential. We listen to our social care staff about the best way to deliver our services and encourage feedback and suggestions on how we can do things better together.
Key responsibilities...
Manage a small caseload, organising and prioritising the workload effectively, with regular supervision and guidance.
To work as part of a multi-disciplinary team, connecting people and their families to their community and social networks enabling them to live within their own communities.
To work collaboratively with multidisciplinary colleagues to ensure people have the right care, at the right time in the right place.
To take a strengths-based approach to support people to live the best life they can and reduce dependence on long term care.
To support in delivering and maintaining high standards of performance across the service.
