Job Description
This is an exciting opportunity to join the London Borough of Enfield (LBE) as we continue to strengthen and develop our services for vulnerable adults in partnership with our health colleagues. Working within the Assessment and Prevention Hub in the Older People and Physical Disabilities Service, you will play a key role in promoting independence, supporting recovery, and improving outcomes for residents.
Our multidisciplinary team includes Social Workers, Occupational Therapists, and Social Care Assessors, working collaboratively to deliver person-centred support in line with the Care Act 2014.
About the Role
The Assessment and Prevention Hub focuses on helping people maintain their independence and wellbeing by preventing, reducing, and delaying the need for long-term care and support.
Key responsibilities include:
Carrying out timely strengths-based assessments, reviews, and short-term case management.
Developing person-centred support plans to ensure individuals receive the right level of care and intervention.
Supporting adults following hospital discharge, periods of illness, rehabilitation, recuperation, or a decline in health at home.
Completing assessments and support planning within community settings, step-down beds, flexi flats, residential placements, and post-discharge pathways.
Working closely with health professionals, community partners, and families to achieve positive outcomes.
What We Are Looking For
You will:
Be a registered Social Worker with Social Work England.
Have sound knowledge of the Care Act 2014, safeguarding processes, personal budgets, and Continuing Healthcare.
Be confident in completing strengths-based, needs-led assessments and support planning.
Be committed to multidisciplinary working and partnership approaches.
Be willing to undertake the role of a Trusted Assessor, including assessing for and providing minor aids and adaptations.
Work effectively with health services, the voluntary and community sector, and social prescribing services.
Why Join Us?
This is an excellent opportunity to be part of an innovative and supportive team committed to making a real difference to the lives of Enfield residents. We welcome applications from experienced practitioners as well as newly qualified social workers who can demonstrate enthusiasm, commitment, and a passion for supporting vulnerable adults.
