You will work collaboratively with a wide range of professionals including Hospital Discharge Teams, Social Workers, Occupational Therapists, GPs, District Nurses, Community Healthcare Teams, and other partner agencies to coordinate care packages, respond to referrals, and promote positive outcomes for customers living independently at home.

Alongside this, you will support the day-to-day coordination of our domiciliary care service, helping to ensure high standards of care delivery and continuity for both customers and care staff.

  • Support hospital discharges by arranging care packages quickly and efficiently.
  • Ensure all referrals are managed professionally, with effective communication throughout the customer's journey.
  • Promote collaborative working across health and social care services to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Care Coordination

In addition to the above, you will also:

  • Develop and maintain efficient staff rotas that promote continuity of care and minimise travel time.
  • Match carers with customers based on skills, experience, and individual needs.
  • Manage last-minute changes, emergency cover, and staff absences.
  • Act as a key point of contact for customers, families, and care staff.
  • Respond promptly to telephone calls, emails, and messages.
  • Record and escalate concerns, complaints, compliments, and safeguarding issues appropriately.
  • Work closely with the Registered Manager and wider care team to maintain high standards of service quality.
  • Participate in the shared out-of-hours on-call rota, providing support to customers and staff while managing emergencies and operational queries.

About You

We are looking for someone who has:

  • A minimum of 1 year's hands-on care experience (essential).
  • Experience working within domiciliary care, community services, hospital discharge, or care coordination (desirable)
  • Excellent communication skills and the confidence to build professional relationships across health and social care.
  • Strong organisational and problem-solving abilities.
  • Experience in rota planning or scheduling (desirable).
  • Confidence using care management or rostering systems (training provided if required).
  • The ability to work independently while thriving as part of a supportive team.
