  • Supporting Continuing Healthcare processes and contributing to Decision Support Tool (DST) meetings where required.
  • Participating in multidisciplinary decision-making within Transfer of Care Hubs to support effective discharge planning.
  • Undertaking safeguarding interventions and responding appropriately to safeguarding concerns involving vulnerable adults.
  • Promoting timely discharge planning and ensuring individuals are discharged on or before their medically optimised discharge date wherever possible.
  • Maintaining accurate, timely, and legally compliant assessments, reports, support plans, and case records.
  • Working collaboratively with system partners to achieve positive outcomes and improve patient flow through hospital services.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
