Description

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Paediatric Nurse seeking to undertake an interesting and highly rewarding clinical and team leadership role.


This team leader role will take responsibility for the clinical leadership and management for the Children's Continuing Care & Assessment Team (CCCAT).


The CCCAT provides Health Needs Assessments (HNA) for Children & Young People (CYP) who meet the criteria for continuing care - on many occasions this facilitates the transfer home from hospital.

The assessment requires significant liaison with families and professionals across the region as well as Integrated Care Boards (ICB) to ensure an accurate assessment of need is established and then can be commissioned.

Once the level of support is identified the team is involved in the regular review of the CYP responding to changes in need and supporting them in the community until they no longer require the service or transition in to adult care.

The service also has a function in the provision of consumables and equipment.


This post provides the opportunity for a forward thinking and experienced Paediatric Nurse with extensive clinical skills and knowledge in children's complex physical needs to co-ordinate a team of Senior Nurses, Health Care Support Workers and Admin staff in the assessment, support and review of CYP with complex health needs across Central and Pennine Lancashire.
