Clinical Team Lead, Eden ICC
NHS AfC: Band 7
Job overview
Due to maternity leave an exciting opportunity has arisen for a Therapy Team Leader position over the Therapy Team and HCP Team, within Eden ICC on a fixed term basis.
The skills of the post holder will be vitally important to continue to build relationships and networks within the ICCs. The post holder will be a clinician who can inspire, motivate and think differently in order to improve patient care with other key partners and stakeholders in the Eden ICC.
ICCs have three main aims:
- ICCs - the place (tackling the wider determinants of health though a population health approach)
- ICCs - the experience (more self-activation for better health outcomes through social prescribing and community engagement)
- ICCs - integrated teams. Each ICC has a coordination hub which coordinates the activity of each ICC. Clinical leadership for the hub is provided by a Professional of the Day who is either a registered nurse or therapist on a rota.
All ICC teams work closely together to ensure that patients can avoid going to hospital where health and care can be provided at home or in the community. In addition there is a focus on bringing people out of hospital as soon as they are medically fit.
Main duties of the job
Clinical responsibility, including overseeing complex patients; Supervision, teaching and training; staff management and leadership, service development and evaluation, quality and safety.
All staff are expected to work to the Trust Values:
Kindness - Kindness and compassion cost nothing, yet accomplish a
great deal.
Respect - We are respective to everyone and are open, honest and fair
– respect behaviours
Ambition – We set goals to achieve the best for our patients, teams,
organisations and our partners.
Collaboration – We are stronger and better working together with and
for our patients.
Please see job description for more details around duties of the role.
