We are continuing to transform the Care at Home services through multi-disciplinary approaches that bring positive and life changing improvements to those who receive our services with a focus on supporting service users to regain or attain skills and abilities. Helping them to achieve as much independence as they can in their own homes.
To support this we are looking for a Team Leader for our Home Assessment Team (East Kilbride).
You will work a multi-disciplinary team that includes Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Community Nurses and Care at Home professionals with the aim of supporting, motivating and inspiring people to re-learn daily skills and enhance their quality of life. This may be required following a period in hospital or to prevent admission to hospital.
As part of the Home Assessment management teams, the Team Leader will play a key leadership and management role, responsible for the management and supervision of a multi-disciplinary team and the management and oversight of the assessment function as well as the management, delivery and development of services. As one of the largest services provided by the Council and the HSCP, the service plays a critical role in enabling individuals to remain at home in a way that promotes their wellbeing, dignity, privacy, respect and personal choices.
As an employee, you would have access to the employee benefits that you would expect from one of Scotland’s largest Council’s. It is essential that applicants either hold or are working towards a SSSC recognised professional qualification in Social Work, Occupational Therapy, Social Care or Management. The successful candidate is required to maintain a registration with the Scottish Social Services Council.
