  • Assessment and management of long-term conditions.

  • Supporting patients with complex physical health needs.
  • Coordinating care with multidisciplinary teams and partner organisations.

The successful candidate will be confident working autonomously, whilst also contributing positively to a supportive and dynamic team environment.
