Do you have an interest in frailty and the care of older adults?

We are looking for a motivated individual to work as part of our multi-disciplinary team as a health improvement facilitator to focus on ageing well and proactive care in care homes.

This is an exciting, unique and interesting role with opportunities for development and growth that you will be able to influence.

This will include delivering group education sessions across a broad range of topics including physical activity and supporting quality improvement initiatives to promote best practice in ageing well.

• The post holder will work collaboratively with multidisciplinary colleagues, care home providers and partner organisations to improve outcomes for residents by encouraging person-centred care, maintaining independence and reducing avoidable deterioration associated with frailty, inactivity and falls.
