We are Manchester Local Care Organisation - an exciting, new public sector organisation that is bringing together NHS community health services and social care services in the city. We’re driven by the aim of improving the health of local people in Manchester by working across organisational boundaries.
The first health and social care staff have been deployed to us from April 2018 and are now starting to work in new ways across the city. Our teams work as one in the neighbourhoods they serve – delivering and designing services in partnership with local people. We also provide key services that work across wider localities and city-wide. We believe that our pioneering approach will make a massive difference to the health of people in our city and we are looking for you to join our team and help us do this.
If you can answer YES to the following questions, we have the post for you.
• Do you enjoy working in partnership with children and families?
• Do you enjoy working in the community?
• Do you enjoy supporting children with a range of abilities?
• Are you looking for a new challenge?
• Do you want to extend your knowledge and experience of complex care?
