Your preferences of team and rota will be discussed with you at interview stage. Details of the teams are outlined below:
Active Recovery Assessment and Rapid Recovery
Active Recovery is used to proactively work with people over a defined period of time to achieve goals with the overall aim of maximising their independence, health and quality of life. It is aimed at adults who have a new or longer term need for services but could be supported to recover or minimise their needs, reducing reliance on longer term care. Active Recovery operates differently from traditional home care as it focuses on helping people regain the ability to do as much for themselves as possible rather than doing things for them –demonstrating how to achieve something and then gradually standing back to encourage people to develop these skills
Rapid Recovery is working with people placed into step down/respite beds to support them home as quickly as possible. You will work in a person centred, solution focused way and assessments and reviews will focus on identifying and updating people’s individual goals and their ability to achieve them.
Hospital See and Solve & Hospital Locality
The Hospital See & Solve Team supports a person being discharged from hospital and the team play an important role in ensuring that people’s independence is maximised and that those people who formally enter the system do not unnecessarily grow dependent on it but strive to maximise their strengths and achieve their goals. The teams use a solution focussed approach to discuss what is important to people, and use their expertise and knowledge of the community to help them identify options and commit to action.
The Hospital Localityteam supports all individuals requiring longer term adult social care input on discharge from hospital; working with health professionals to assess their immediate needs, identifying the goals they would like to achieve and the support required to meet these, working with Brokerage to identify suitable providers; ensuring a timely and coordinated discharge from hospital.
East & West Locality Teams
The East and West Locality teams work in partnership with all individuals requiring longer term adult social care support. Referrals to the teams will come directly from See & Solve Community, for ongoing support following Active Recovery and after a hospital discharge package has been put in place. The teams are work jointly, between Social Work, Occupational Therapy as well as with Sensory and Telecare colleagues, to identify actions and goals the individual wants to achieve and the best way to achieve these and are within statutory frameworks including the MCA 2005 and Care Act 2014. The teams also ensure individuals receive timely and proportionate reviews ensuring that an individual’s goals and actions are reflecting changes in their life and supporting them to be independent.
