Working collaboratively with acute hospitals, local authorities, social care teams, care providers and community services, you will help remove barriers to discharge and improve patient outcomes across the system.

You will also act as a specialist resource for discharge planning, providing expert advice on funding pathways, continuing healthcare processes, safeguarding, homelessness assessments and complex care arrangements.

We deliver and transform adult and children community health services, primary care services including urgent care, sexual health, dermatology and MSK services as well as adult social care and wellbeing services. Across England, we support communities of many millions and directly help more than half a million people each year, guided by our simple values: we care, we think, we do.
