About this role

We are currently looking for an experienced social worker to join a busy hospital discharge team.

Please do not apply if you do not have a Social Work Qualification with a minimum of 2 years post qualified experience.

About the team

This team works closely with the multidisciplinary team to complete care act assessments, mental capacity assessments, and strengths-based care planning for adults preparing to leave hospital. You will coordinate discharge arrangements, D2A pathways and make sure that patients receive timely discharges. The team's ability to manage a fast paced, everchanging caseload is key to the success the team has had.

About you

A successful candidate will have extensive experience working autonomously and effectively within a multidisciplinary environment. Experience working in hospital discharge or short-term intervention roles lend well to the success of this position. A degree within social work (Degree/DipSW/CQSW) with a minimum of two years' post qualified experience is essential for this role (a completed ASYE is counted as one complete year). A valid UK driving licence and car is not essential but desirable for the role.

£32.00 per hour (PAYE payment options available also)

-

Hybrid working scheme

-

Excellent transport links

-

Parking available on site/ nearby

-

Fast paced, short term case holding
