£38 per hour Umbrella
Contract until end of September
Hybrid Working | 2 days office based per week
We are currently supporting Bath & North East Somerset with the recruitment of an experienced Social Worker to join their Hospital Social Care Team on a short-term basis.
This role will focus on supporting individuals being discharged under Pathway 2 and Pathway 3 of the Discharge to Assess process, helping to ensure safe and timely transitions from hospital settings into the community.
Duties will include:
• Completing Care Act Assessments
• Mental Capacity Assessments
• Best Interest Decisions
• CHC work
• Safeguarding enquiries
• Supporting urgent/duty visits where required
This is a hybrid opportunity; however, candidates must live locally to the BANES area due to the requirement to attend the office twice weekly and respond to urgent visits when needed.
We are looking to speak with Social Workers who have previous experience within hospital discharge/community adult social care settings and who are confident managing fast-paced statutory work.
If you would like further information or are interested in being considered, please get in touch today with Sarah Leigh on 02922 400519 or APPLY NOW!
