You will be responsible for the assessment, planning, review and delivery of care and treatment in conjunction with the MDT and service users on your caseload, working as the key worker for a small number of service users (limited to 15). But will work with any service users who could benefit from your skills and experience. You will support duty cover for the team on a rostered basis and will liaise with other agencies to ensure care needs are met.
