Richmond Response and Reablement Team (RRRT) are excited to be recruiting for a passionate individual to work on the Urgent Community Response pathway. Regardless of Nursing, Paramedic or Therapy background, we are looking for a registered healthcare professional with assessment skills and a key interest in avoiding unnecessary admissions to hospital.
RRRT is a seven-day integrated health and social care service for adults, primarily older people, working in partnership with HRCH and the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames Council.
As a development role, it is expected that the post holder will, with support from the MDT, develop their skills to an advanced practice level. We recognise that potential post holders come from a variety of backgrounds and are prepared to support gaps in knowledge and scope. We are keen to encourage and nurture careers and will actively support staff development.
The post holder will use enhanced skills, being supported to complete thorough clinical assessments, to diagnose and treat patients within 2 hours of referral in their own homes / care homes. Our aim is to avoid further clinical deterioration and preventing unnecessary hospital admission and to relieve pressures from GPs, London Ambulance Service and Acute Hospitals.
