setting e.g. hospital-based, health visitors and school nurses. Our CCN Team at Lincoln is an integral part of our children's community services and each consists of a Team Leader, Band 6 CCNs, HCSWs and Administrative Support who work closely to provide a seamless service between hospital and home. The service is available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm, however, team members are required to work flexibly to provide 'before' and 'after' school visits as required. You will participate in an evening telephone on-call system operating Monday to Friday 5pm to 10pm on weekdays and 9am to 10pm at weekends and Bank holidays for the county-wide CCN caseload. This will run alongside a 24/7 rota for children and young people requiring end of life care when required. Applicants must be NMC Registered Nurse (child). Recent CCN and community caseload management experience would be highly advantageous as would a community health degree with a specialist practitioner qualification. Main duties of the job
Working as part of the team and in partnership with the child, their family/carers, you will formulate individual care packages that facilitate the smooth transition from hospital to home. You will have responsibility for managing your own caseload and coordinating services to facilitate early discharge, reduce hospital re-admissions and provide support and nursing care to children and young people with acute healthcare needs and those with long-term conditions at home. Participating in the out-of-hours telephone on-call system to support all children and families on the CCN countywide caseload you will enable admission avoidance. As an excellent communicator you will support the development of ambulatory care and promote the ethos of empowering children and their families to develop the knowledge, skills and expertise to enable them to become self-caring, independent and manage their own condition at home wherever possible. Applicants must demonstrate an ability to work autonomously and as part of a team. The ability to travel throughout the county is essential. ULHT offers a lease car scheme for employees. Opportunities for further professional development, training and regular 1:1 support from the Team Leader will be offered. About us
