Trosolwg o'r swydd
The post holder will be working within a Health and Justice Reconnect Team, with the flexibility of working across the wider Health and Justice service for Staffordshire, dependent on skill and service need. RECONNECT is not itself a treatment service, but it is an identification, assessment and referral service. Staff use national assessments tools to complete a health needs assessment which identifies any unmet health needs. This then aids staff with the information to make appropriate referrals for treatment and support. RECONNECT staff then share specific health requirements and vulnerabilities of an individual with the criminal justice practitioners, which can be taken into account when decisions about charging and sentencing are made. The role will involve identifying, assessing and implementing a wide and, at times, complex range of services for an ageless, vulnerable group of individuals who are identified with acute or complex unmet needs. The post holder will act as an experienced and largely independent practitioner within the role, assessing, formulating, implementing and agreeing care and support plans with adults and carers. The post holder will also be expected to be available for consultation, support and clinical supervision to other health and social care professionals working within the RECONNECT Team and other areas of the Trust where identified as appropriate.
