Description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an rehabilitation care coordinator to join First Coastal Primary Care Network.

As a therapy focussed Care Coordinator you will focus on patients in their own homes and within care homes to identify and provide therapy interventions to help a person achieve or maintain independence.

You will work alongside a growing multidisciplinary team and will focus on patients with frailty and deconditioning to improve overall quality of life.

You will need to deliver high quality patient centred care whilst working within the MDT demonstrating good communication skills.

You will hold a caseload of patients and complete holistic assessments of the patients who come into our care and support admission and discharge plans as well as identification of any therapy needs.

Therapy experience is preferred but not essential. You will need to have an ability to travel across the First Coastal area.

Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust is in the top 25 per cent of all community trusts for overall staff engagementin the 2021 NHS National Staff Survey.

LCHS recognises the increasing demand for more flexibility in working practices in order to accommodate the personal goals and commitments that employees experience at different stages during their working lives.

Flexible working opportunities such as part-time working, compressed hours, job shares, and hybrid working models can help staff to balance their personal and work commitments.

Arrangements can be put in place if it can be shown that the needs of the individual can be balanced with those of the service and the impact on other team members, enabling the Trust to recruit and retain skilled staff, raise staff morale, reduce absenteeism and respond to changing service needs more effectively.

First Coastal PCN covers a population of approximately 84,000 patients this is made up of seven practices, Marsico Medical Practice (Mablethorpe), Hawthorn Medical Practice (Skegness), Beacon Medical Practice (Skegness), Merton Lodge (Alford), Spilsby Surgery, Stickney Surgery and Old Leake Medical Practice.

These practices work together across coastal and rural to deliver care to the local population.
