• Managing a complex caseload of patients with long-term conditions, frailty and multiple health and social care needs.
• Co-ordinating care across multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless and person-centred service delivery.
• Supporting patients to remain independent at home through proactive care planning and intervention.
• Developing, implementing and evaluating personalised care plans in partnership with patients, carers and professionals.
• Providing clinical advice, guidance and signposting to appropriate services and support networks.
• Leading holistic care planning and promoting shared decision-making.
• Supporting proactive case-finding and population health management initiatives.
• Monitoring patient outcomes and contributing to continuous quality improvement.
