Trosolwg o'r swydd
**We offer a relocation package of up to £8,000**
The All Age Disability Service is a social care staff group that transferred to the NHS as part of the Health and Social Care Integration Agenda.
Are you a qualified social worker with at least two years experience looking for a new opportunity? We have a vacancy working with children within our Children with Disabilities Service.
Our team works with children with severe learning disabilities to support them, and their carers, to achieve their outcomes. CWP is at the forefront of health and social care integration and this service lends itself to developing new, innovative ways of working together.
Within the CWD Team you will be undertaking assessments, support plans and reviews, working with children with learning disabilities, their carers and providers. You will be a person centred practitioner and will complete support plans, mental capacity assessments, be involved in court work and safeguarding enquiries.
At least two years experience of working as a social worker is desirable. Experience of working with children with complex needs is also desirable but what is crucial is a genuine wish to work with children with learning disabilities to meet their own goals and aspirations.
An understanding of asset and strength-based approaches to assessment and support planning is vital. In return we can offer you a clear career progression framework with a range of training opportunities.
