This is a new role, and the successful candidate will be supporting, and leading on some areas of clinical pathway development across the system; supporting the system to ensure evidence-based care is being delivered, reducing variation and improving quality and safety. An example of a potential workstream is bladder and bowel pathways which will require working across primary care, healthy child teams, secondary and specialist providers as well as VCSE and early years and schools. This is an incredible opportunity for a registered nurse who is keen to develop into a strategic role & contribute to the transformation of services to make a difference at a system wide level. Quality & safety are at the heart of improving outcomes and we use policy, guidance, business intelligence and impact methodologies to underpin our work. Engagement with children, young people and their families along with our partners in other organsiations is also an essential component of transformation. Addressing inequalities is the golden thread of all our work and the successful candidate would need to have a good understanding of health inequalities including CYP Core20plus and the determinants of health. The role would suit either an experienced children' nurse, public health nurse and/ or a primary care nurse who can evidence excellent knowledge, skills and expertise in these areas. You must be passionate about transformation and be able to broaden your horizons and be creative about the art of the possible. A working knowledge of the latest policy and guidance will be essential. There will be an expectation for the post holder to lead on key developments of clinical pathway transformation to reduce variation across the ICS geography. A whole system approach will be underpinned through integration across primary, secondary, community services, local authority and education services, public health and the voluntary sector. This will include a cycle of audit to monitor progress and identify risks to delivery. You will be expected to work independently as well as part of the team and have a leadership role in driving change. This is likely to include organising and attending meetings ( sometimes chairing ), preparing and presenting in a number of forums ( virtual or face to face) and developing new relationships across organisational boundaries. You must be able to demonstrate confidence and clarity in a variety of situations and be able to build positive relationships across the system to support effective delivery. This role requires the post holder to lead on clinical pathway transformation and integration work programmes within the children and young people's portfolio. The focus will be primarily (but not exclusively) on aligned and integrated working across children and young people's work programmes in acute and community provision and will require post holder to work in partnership with colleagues in variety of parts of system including the Mental Health Learning Disability and Autism collaborative, education colleagues and healthy child services. The post holder will be required to develop new and unique plans in partnership with system partners and will require the post holder to manage and enable continuous improvement and promote innovation. The approach of the post holder will be outcomes focused, ensuring the best patient centred care for our local population, with a specific focus on prevention of ill health, reducing inequalities and supporting the commissioning of an integrated community-based care system. Some examples of areas within the post holders portfolio include; bowel and bladder support/services, transition to adult services, cerebral palsy pathways.
