The Older Adults Service works with older adults who have mental health needs in the community and following an in-patient stay. The team is multi-disciplinary, consisting of OT, nursing, psychiatry, psychology, social workers, voluntary sector, support workers, and peer workers. The service works closely with health, social care, statutory, and voluntary sector partners.
Fit for the Future 10 Year Health Plan for England (2025) is the main strategic driver for change for older adults accessing health and social care services. The role will align with expectations for moving service provision from hospitals to the community, as well as with local and national ambitions for integrated neighbourhood teams. Place-based partnerships and integrated neighbourhood teams promote a focus on prevention and integration of statutory and voluntary agencies.
The focus of the position is to maintain patient flow whilst supporting a strengths-based approach to recovery. The role will be based in the community teams with an expectation that at least 50% of time will be spent on the older adult wards.
We are looking for enthusiastic, dynamic, and experienced individuals who can work confidently on their own as well as being team players. Good communication and problem-solving skills are essential, as well as knowledge of the needs of older adults. We also seek people who can demonstrate the Trust’s vision and values in practice and are motivated to be involved in innovation and service development.
As a social worker in the team, we will ensure that you have clinical and professional support from a qualified social worker to support the maintenance of your professional registration. This support will be alongside the supervision and management that will come from the Trust, giving the best of both worlds.
The service received an overall rating of Good by the CQC and an Outstanding for care and compassion, of which we are rightly proud. We have also been recognised both locally and nationally by receiving awards for the services we provide.
Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership Trust provides a full range of expanding physical, mental health, and learning disability services to children, young adults, adults, and older adults over many sites across Coventry, Warwickshire, and Solihull. Services are provided to a population of over one million people living in Coventry and Warwickshire, and also a wider geographical area in some of our specialist services; we see on average around 5,000 patients every day.
Visits to the team or questions are encouraged to appreciate this exciting and challenging role. The successful applicant will work alongside the leads and colleagues to continue to develop the service and begin to pick up a specific relevant clinical caseload, providing evidence-based interventions as well as liaising with other agencies. You will form part of the multi-disciplinary team and be expected to voice your professional experience to support the patients who are open to the service and other services that may need your advice or support.
As a clinician within the team, we will ensure that you have clinical and professional support from the relevant professionals to support the maintenance of your professional registration. This support will be alongside the supervision and management that will come from the Trust, giving the best of both worlds.
We encourage staff development, and you will be supported throughout your supervision and appraisal process to develop your skills and reach your potential.
