between acute and community services • Ensure that service transitions are the
norm and are increasingly effective The post holder will deliver and contribute to
the development of an innovative recovery programme which will offer a range of
support to address what matters to the client, e.g. housing, benefits, welfare, etc.
The post would support secondary care clinicians; including those in ED to support
service users into support within the hospital and, crucially, post discharge. This
challenging role will involve delivering practical, bespoke interventions both in

addition to improve the patient journey will also report back to the partnership

community to recruit previous service users who are able to relate and show
compassion to patients showing instant trust and sustained engagement with
treatment programmes and support outreach visits
