The posting

Our client based in Rhondda Cynon Taf is seeking an experienced Social Worker to join their Learning Disabilities Service on a project basis. This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled practitioner to undertake a dedicated programme of reassessment work with adults with learning disabilities, ensuring care and support arrangements remain appropriate, proportionate, and focused on achieving positive outcomes.

The successful candidate will complete strengths-based reassessments, review existing care and support arrangements, and make evidence-based recommendations regarding future support needs. Working within the framework of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014, you will focus on promoting wellbeing, independence, choice, control, and co-production whilst ensuring individuals are supported to achieve their personal outcomes.

This role is a time-limited project assignment and does not involve ongoing case management. It is ideally suited to an experienced practitioner with strong assessment skills, knowledge of learning disability services, and experience applying the Mental Capacity Act and best interests processes.

What will your responsibilities be?

  • Undertaking strengths-based reassessments of adults with learning disabilities in accordance with the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014.
  • Identifying personal outcomes and determining whether current care and support arrangements continue to meet assessed needs.
  • Reviewing existing care and support packages and evaluating whether alternative models of care may better support individuals to achieve their desired outcomes.
  • Completing Mental Capacity Assessments where required in relation to specific decisions.
  • Undertaking and contributing to Best Interest decision-making processes where individuals lack capacity for the relevant decision.
  • Assessing and managing risks in a balanced and proportionate way, promoting independence, empowerment, choice, and wellbeing.
  • Identifying and building upon individual strengths, capabilities, community connections, and existing support networks.
  • Working collaboratively with individuals, families, carers, advocacy services, providers, health professionals, and partner agencies.
  • Contributing to multidisciplinary discussions and assessments where appropriate.
  • Producing clear, evidence-based recommendations regarding future care and support arrangements.
  • Ensuring assessments, support plans, Mental Capacity Act documentation, Best Interest records, and professional recommendations are completed to a high standard.
  • Maintaining accurate, timely, and legally compliant electronic case records in line with organisational policies and procedures.
  • Promoting the principles of co-production and ensuring individuals remain at the centre of decision-making regarding their care and support.

Qualifications and Experience:

To be successful in this role you must have;

  • Professional Qualification: Degree in Social Work, Diploma in Social Work, CQSW, or equivalent recognised Social Work qualification.
  • Registration: Must be registered with Social Care Wales.
  • Experience: Significant post-qualified experience within Adult Social Care services.
  • Learning Disabilities Experience: Proven experience working with adults with learning disabilities and complex support needs.
  • Legislation Knowledge: Strong understanding of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014, Mental Capacity Act 2005, Human Rights legislation, and Adult Safeguarding procedures.
  • Assessment Skills: Proven ability to undertake strengths-based assessments, reassessments, reviews, and outcome-focused support planning.
  • Mental Capacity Experience: Experience undertaking Mental Capacity Assessments and Best Interest decision-making processes.
  • Risk Management: Ability to undertake balanced and proportionate risk assessments that promote independence and positive outcomes.
  • Multi-Agency Working: Strong experience working collaboratively with providers, families, carers, advocacy services, health professionals, and partner agencies.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent communication, report-writing, analytical, and decision-making skills.
  • Professional Practice: Commitment to person-centred, strengths-based and outcomes-focused practice in line with the principles of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014.
