Our Social Care Community Engagement (SCCE) Team is at the forefront of implementing the "Human Learning Systems approach" - Norfolk's approach to delivering a new model of social care. This tried and tested method focuses on strengthening our front door and encouraging social care professionals to have meaningful conversations with individuals to create better outcomes. It moves away from process-driven 'hand-offs' and promotes connecting with local networks and community support. By fostering these genuine interactions, we aim to enhance the quality of care and support available in our neighbourhoods and communities.
In this role, you will need excellent communication, record-keeping, and keyboard skills, along with experience of working with individuals who require care and support. A commitment to excellent customer service and the ability to manage a high turnover of work in an organised and efficient manner are essential.
You should also have a strong commitment to multidisciplinary working and be familiar with the department’s eligibility criteria. To accomplish our goals, we are committed to equipping our team members with the skills and resources necessary to engage meaningfully with those we serve. Regular individual supervision, peer group support, and access to appropriate training will be provided to assist your learning and development.
