The CYP Key Worker service has been developed as a response to the NHS England Long Term Plan (LTP) commitment that by 2023/24, eligible children, young people and inpatients with a learning disability, autism - or both - with the most complex needs will have a designated Key Worker.
The service is delivered by Barnardo's and aims to provide dedicated key workers for children and young people with a learning disability and/or autism diagnosis who are already in hospital or in crisis and at risk of admission. They work with children and young people aged 0 - 25 with a focus on 14 - 25 years.
Throughout the Pilot phase, the Service challenged the system to work collectively and across organisational boundaries to ensure support wraps around children, young people and their families when they most need it.
Acknowledging the complexity of navigating and bringing about significant change and transformation within statutory organisations, this role will continue to act as an enabler, facilitating cross organisational and system learning and change, creating a whole 'System' that will simplify and remove traditional barriers to accessing the right support at the right time for all families.
