Description
Are you looking for a brand new challenge that will utilise your advanced nursing skills, with great opportunities for professional development?


We are recruiting a Care Home Matron work in Horsham in close partnership with Horsham PCNs, and care homes, and local care providers.


Enhanced Health in Care Homes are also entering an exciting phase of introducing telehealth via Whzan telemetry in Residential Homes, as a early identification tool for potential resident health deterioration to enable the Care Home Team to look at new ways of managing on going care other than utilising the acute hospitals and reducing admissions.


The post holders will need to link in with wider SCFT services, and form strong links both internally with our Community Nursing teams and externally with the wider PCN teams, care homes, and medicine optimisation services.


They will undertake advanced clinical assessment, needs identification, planning, case management and coordination of care for individuals with highly complex needs and co-existing long term conditions.

They will work proactively to reduce unplanned hospital admissions, and facilitate discharge from hospital for care home residents identified through weekly check-in meetings with the care homes and the dedicated PCN team.

We are the main provider of NHS community services across East and West Sussex.

Our 6,000 staff serve a population of 1.3 million providing essential medical, nursing, and therapeutic care to adults and children.


Our Trust vision is to provide excellent care at the heart of the community, helping people plan, manage, adapt to changes in their health, supporting avoidable hospital admissions and reducing hospital stay times.

We have opportunities for everyone across our wide variety of services including medical, clinical, support and corporate services.

Variety of working environments across the community, in patients' homes, within our community hospitals and bases across the county
