Adult's SW - Transfer of Care Integrated Team - Tameside
An experienced Adult Social Worker is required to join a Transfer of Care Integrated Team, supporting people to move safely and effectively from hospital or other care settings into the most appropriate community-based support. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference by promoting independence, wellbeing and positive outcomes for adults, their families and carers.
You will complete strengths-based assessments, identify eligible needs and develop person-centred support plans in partnership with individuals and relevant professionals. Your responsibilities will include facilitating safe discharges, arranging appropriate care and support, reviewing outcomes and responding to changing circumstances. You will work closely with health colleagues, care providers, families and wider services to ensure plans are coordinated, proportionate and focused on recovery and independence.
The role will involve managing a varied caseload, undertaking safeguarding enquiries where required, contributing to multi-disciplinary meetings and ensuring that all decisions are clearly recorded and supported by sound professional judgement. You will also provide information and advice, consider ordinary residence and funding responsibilities, and work within relevant legislation, statutory guidance, policies and professional standards.
Applicants must hold a recognised Social Work qualification and current registration with Social Work England. You will have recent experience of working with adults in a social care, hospital discharge, integrated or community setting, together with a sound understanding of the Care Act, safeguarding procedures, mental capacity and best-interest decision-making. Experience of assessment, care planning, risk management and partnership working is essential.
You should be confident managing competing priorities, communicating effectively with people from diverse backgrounds and working collaboratively in a fast-paced environment. A reflective, organised and solution-focused approach is required, alongside the ability to make defensible decisions and maintain accurate case records. A current driving licence and access to transport may be required, depending on service needs.
