The duty service consists of 5 duty teams. You will be on duty one week in five and have the support of a Team Manager, Advanced Practitioner, and a Senior Social Worker. Families we work with in duty require our expert assessment and intervention skills. The nature of the work within the duty service can be described as fast-paced. You will work on one of 5 duty teams, only going on duty 1 in every 5 weeks. The duty teams in Wigan hold a varying complexity of cases. In our duty service, case transfer points include the initial child protection case conference, the first CLA review, the first PLO meeting, and the 3rd CIN meeting.
You will have the ability to think quickly and be creative to overcome the complex challenges and issues you may face. You will possess good interpersonal and caring skills which will help you support and meet the needs of the children, young people, and their families. Being motivated to empower children and families is essential to support them in reaching and achieving their own solutions and assisting in helping them make long-term sustainable family plans.
