Adult’s Social Worker
Team: Hospital Discharge
Location: Wakefield
Rate: £TBC
We are looking for motivated Grade 8 Social Workers to join our Hospital Social Work Team.
We work with Adult’s over 18 to facilitate a safe transfer of care from hospital and then follow them into the community to assess long-term care needs and maximise their independence.
You must enjoy working in a fast-paced environment and working closely with our multi-disciplinary system partners.
Your main responsibilities as a Level 1 Hospital Social Worker:
• You will manage a varied caseload, which will include capacity assessments, best interest decision making, Care Act assessments, and being part of a duty rota.
• You will deliver exceptional social care to the adults we are supporting and their carers and promote choice and control as much as possible.
• The team is looking to appoint an individual who is enthusiastic to engage in adopting strengths based, person centred assessments.
• You will engage in outcomes focused and preventative conversations which build on the strengths of people and their local networks.
• You will predominantly be supporting with hospital discharges at either our sites at Pinderfields or Dewsbury District Hospitals.
