Further Information
The Care Home Support Team offers a fresh approach to supporting Care Homes, Nursing Homes and Supported Living settings in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. We work alongside Care Home Managers, empowering them to find solutions to complex issues and coaching them through change management. The team works with Home Managers to understand the actions that are required, implement the necessary changes and help to embed a positive culture amongst staff within the home.
The support is flexible, intensive and preventative. We work in partnership with the provider, Contracts team, ICB and other agencies to ensure effective and sustained change and delivery of high quality care to the residents.
The Care Home Support Team is a great team to be a part of. As a fairly new team, we have the unique opportunity to be creative in our practice and shape the way in which we provide support to providers.
The team has a strong emphasis on Social Work values and best practice. Within the team there is also dedicated time and space for reflection and learning.
You may be visiting care homes to support them during times of having a COVID outbreak so it is important you feel you can do this. You will have the appropriate PPE to undertake this role.

We are proud to serve the diverse communities of Peterborough and want our workforce to reflect this diversity, which we believe is beneficial for our employees, the organisation and the communities we serve.
