Qualified social worker – Hertfordshire – Older People’s Team

Liquid Personnel is currently recruiting a Qualified social worker to join the unique team at a Hertfordshire based Older People’s Team.

A new opportunity has opened in our Older People’s Team as we are now expanding due to overseeing a pioneering initiative to create a Virtual Ward in the community. This will ensure patients can have access to the acute treatment they need, with the right clinical oversight in their homes, without having to be in situ within the Hospital.

What will it give you as a Qualified social worker:

  • Hybrid operations.
  • Supportive team and management
  • Access to in-house training and wider team learning events
  • £30 per hour

Primary Responsibilities as a Qualified social worker:

  • To provide a professional social work service to adults (including older people) with
    physical, sensory, or learning disabilities and their carers (including those who are
    terminally ill) with a particular focus on enquiries into allegations of significant harm
    (abuse).
  • Working with individuals and/or their families and multi-disciplinary
    colleagues, providing practical assistance, advice, and information, working with
    community supports and liaison with other agencies, seeking the help of other
    professionals as necessary.
  • To assess, sometimes jointly with staff from other teams, service users’ and carers needs including evaluating the level of risk, in accordance with agreed criteria and Departmental policies.

Further Information:

We are looking for qualified social workers who are flexible and can meet the challenges of working in a fast-paced environment. You will have experience of completing Social Care Needs assessment for people who have complex health needs around discharge, in order support a safe discharge from the virtual ward arrangement to their home, so it can be as seamless transition for them. 

What we are looking for in a Qualified social worker:

  • Social Work England registration
