You will be joining a leading organisation that is both forward-thinking and innovative. Southern Health Foundation Trust is committed to improving the quality of community health services across Hampshire and takes pride in rewarding the success of its staff.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, caring, and motivated professional with excellent clinical, managerial, and communication skills, who can work autonomously, manage a team of nurses, and provide ongoing supervision and support of staff development in the absence of the Band 7.
The post holder must have relevant experience in healthcare and demonstrate a proactive and positive attitude to learning the skills required to fulfill the role.
Access to a vehicle and possession of a full driving license is essential.
Main duties of the job
The primary role of the Havant Community Team is to provide strong holistic leadership to the team and support the Integrated Senior Clinical Lead (band 7). This includes day-to-day leadership responsibilities, development, creative leadership, and enabling the team to achieve a 'well-led' culture.
The community teams work in conjunction with a wide range of clinical colleagues and specifically, GPs, Practice Nurses, and Social Care professionals, to lead and facilitate a patient or client-focused, coordinated case management approach across primary and secondary care for people who are most vulnerable and at high risk of repeat admissions to hospital.
The candidate will participate in and influence efforts across health and social services to shape multi-disciplinary pathways designed to support patient choice, improve quality of life, promote self-management, and assure early intervention through the proactive provision of care in or as close to the patient's own home as possible.
The candidate will work across the caseload and the single point of access (or equivalent), using their clinical skills to identify the needs of patients and the correct services to liaise with.
The candidate will provide expertise in their own discipline to the wider team.
