    Description

    Job summary

    CLCH Hertfordshire Adult Community Services - CLCH NHS Trust provides a range of Community Services, and the Hertfordshire Division is recruiting

    We are seeking an enthusiastic occupational therapist to join our Unplanned Care team delivering care to patients closer to home and preventing unnecessary hospital admission in west Hertfordshire.

    The Unplanned Care team comprises five pathways delivered over 7-day working: Discharge to Assess Pathway 1 (DTA); Discharge to Assess Pathway 2, Rapid Response (RR), Frailty and Early intervention Vehicle (EIV). This role will primarily work under the Discharge to Assess and Rapid Response pathways, but may require the candidate to work across the other pathways when required. All pathways deliver nursing and therapy care in a patient's usual home environment.

    RR focuses on preventing avoidable hospital admissions for patients with acute ill-health conditions by providing holistic assessment within 2 hours of referral and treatments over a 5 day pathway.

    Main duties of the job

    DTA supports the discharge of patients from acute and community hospitals to assess and manage rehabilitation/therapy needs to facilitate a safe discharge from hospital when the patient is medically well enough to go home. The pathway is delivered in conjunction with Adult Social Care to support the patient's reablement.

    The EIV service responds to referrals for patients identified as requiring support for low complexity health and functional needs that would otherwise put them at risk of hospital admission through loss of independence and/or falls.

    The Unplanned Care team works in an integrated way with the other community providers in west Hertfordshire to ensure holistic support is provided.

    The Unplanned care team delivers these pathways across all 4 Herts Valleys localities (Watford and Three Rivers, Dacorum, Hertsmere, St. Albans and Harpenden) and also provides a clinical in-reach function at the acute hospitals to prevent admissions and support timely discharges.
