LDA Hospital at Home is an innovative service being developed under the Thames Valley Provider Collaborative, focusing on young people with moderate to severe learning disabilities and/or autism-related functional impairments. The service aims to support young people at risk of home or placement breakdown, preventing unnecessary admissions and stepping down from inpatient care.

By utilising new technology and providing care closer to home, the service reduces admissions, length of stay, and waiting times, offering earlier discharges from inpatient care. We aim to minimise the burden on families, enhance engagement with community teams, encourage early therapeutic home leave, and ensure the best care pathway for each young person.

The role is based at the Meadow Unit at our Warneford Site in Oxford. We offer flexibility in hours and welcome applications for both part-time and full-time positions.

Access to transport for home visits and community visits is essential . If necessary adjustments can be considered in line with the Equality Act 2010 

Join us to be part of this innovative service and make a positive impact on the lives of young people and their families.
