We are looking for people who share our values:

• we are caring and compassionate

We are seeking people who are adaptable and collaborative, with the potential to grow, and the ability to plan, prioritise and organise their work, to join our Urgent Response team. 

Urgent Response are part of the multi-disciplinary urgent response service supporting unwell patients in domiciliary and care homes across Medway. Our aim is to prevent hospital admission, provide treatment and onward referrals to support patients in their own homes or care homes. We promote/preserve the health needs of individuals, families and communities, encourage self-care as well as undertake assessment and evaluation of care with the support of onward referrals to other community services to aid in onward care. 

The service operates 7days per week from 8am - 8pm, 365 days of the year. 

The Urgent Response teams provide care for patients, aged 18 and over who are  within the Medway area, delivering a range of personalised care and treatment to those with complex and long-term conditions, supporting people to stay safe and well at home. 

Our Urgent Response team aim to achieve three sets of goals:

• Providing compassionate, professional, high quality care
