A exciting opportunity has arisen for a substantive registered clinical practitioner to join the Digital Care Hub team to support the delivery of services across local place and across England and Wales.
The Digital Care Hub provides video and telephone support to approximately 25,000 patients living in their own homes and in nursing and residential care.
The Hub is a 24/7 service, with the aim of supporting patients in their own place of residence where it is clinically safe to do so, reducing the number of unnecessary attendances at A&E and unplanned admissions.
The service is rapidly expanding and as such we need additional staff to offer greater support to the new innovations in our work.
Applicants will need to have an innovative approach to work and be receptive to constant change.
We are looking to recruit nurses /Paramedics & therapists from a wide variety of backgrounds to take up opportunities with challenging and evolving posts.
