- To deliver specialist training on Speech and Language need within Criminal Justice pathways to custody sergeants, magistrate and crown court and other key stakeholders.
- To work autonomously, with the ability to organise and manage own time according to delegated workload.

Salaried Frailty General Practitioner
Launceston Medical Centre View all jobs
Posted 16 day(s) ago
Reference: 2429438
Job summary
This is a new role funded by the Launceston and Tamar Valley Integrated Neighbourhood Team (INT). The post holder will be employed by Launceston Medical Centre while working with the wider neighbourhood to develop and implement a frailty model of care, incorporating a proactive care test and learn project and improving coordination across the INT.
The role combines clinical frailty work with service development, collaboration and clinical leadership. As the project develops, the balance of duties may vary to reflect the stage of implementation and learning.
The Frailty Test and Learn is an 18-month project aiming to improve care for people living with frailty. It will focus on early identification, proactive support and better coordination across services, with the intention of improving outcomes for people while reducing avoidable use of acute hospital care.
The project will primarily focus on people aged 65 and over living with moderate to severe frailty.
The two principal goals of the test and learn are to -
Reduce non-elective admissions to acute hospitals for the identified cohort.
Reduce length of stay and bed days within acute settings for the identified cohort through a system-wide, co-designed pull model supporting earlier discharge.
The post holder will be part of the Launceston and Tamar Valley INT frailty team and will contribute actively to the co-design, implementation and evaluation of this project.
Main duties of the job
As the role sits within a developing neighbourhood frailty model, responsibilities will evolve with the project. Expected responsibilities include -
Spend time with organisations and professionals within the INT frailty team to understand their roles, capacity, pathways and workload.
Build effective working relationships across organisations and help identify and reduce barriers to collaboration.
Work with the INT to improve coordination of frailty care across the neighbourhood and reduce duplication between services.
Collaborate with system partners in the development of the pull model intended to support earlier and safer discharge from acute care.
Take an active role in overseeing implementation of the Frailty Test and Learn within Launceston Medical Centre, working closely with the social prescribing team, Health Hub, managers and other relevant staff.
Contribute to the evaluation of the project, including clinical governance, quality improvement, learning, service outcomes and changes required as the model develops.
About us
Launceston Medical Centre is a large dispensing practice providing care to around 19,000 patients in and around Devon and Cornwall.
We enjoy working from modern, purpose-built premises. The partners and staff have a shared belief in the delivery of high quality, traditional and personal family healthcare. Our patients enjoy good access to care, and we have a strong ethos to recognise their needs when driving forward patient services. It is important to the partners to treat our staff well. We are proud to be a teaching Practice. To promote a multi-disciplinary team approach, we share our premises with other providers including mental health services and social prescribers.

Job description
Job responsibilities
The clinical element of the role will focus predominantly on proactive frailty care and medical input where GP expertise adds value within the wider multidisciplinary model.
Review the clinical records of patients identified through agreed IT, population-health or risk-stratification processes to assess suitability for proactive frailty intervention.
Undertake face-to-face or telephone reviews where required. These will mainly be proactive appointments agreed through the co-design of the test and learn and are likely to include medication review, falls assessment, long-term condition review and assessment of complex multimorbidity.
Provide medical review for selected same-day or more complex frailty presentations where a medical problem has been identified and the patients usual GP is not available to provide continuity.
Routine urgent and first-contact care will continue to be managed through the Practices established access and duty arrangements. Requests from the wider INT for medical assessment or appointments would ordinarily enter through these usual routes.
Provide medical supervision, advice and support to members of the Launceston Medical Centre team involved in the Frailty Test and Learn, for example the social prescriber, frailty nurse and care coordinator, within appropriate professional and governance arrangements.
Provide medical advice to the wider INT team where appropriate, supporting shared clinical decision-making and escalation.
Contribute medical expertise to holistic assessment, personalised care planning and comprehensive geriatric assessment undertaken across the multidisciplinary team.
Undertake and support structured medication review and appropriate deprescribing, balancing clinical guidance, treatment burden, safety, quality of life and patient priorities.
Contribute to advance care planning, treatment escalation planning and end-of-life discussions where medical input is required.
Undertake home visits where GP assessment is clinically necessary, while working closely with the wider multidisciplinary team and community services to avoid duplication of work.
Maintain accurate contemporaneous clinical records and complete referrals, prescribing, results and other administration arising directly from the post holders clinical work within agreed timescales.
Recognise and respond appropriately to safeguarding concerns, mental capacity issues, carer strain, self-neglect and other risks associated with frailty and vulnerability.
MULTIDISCIPLINARY WORKING
The post holder will attend regular multidisciplinary meetings as required. The anticipated structure is:
Daily MDT focused on urgent care and admission avoidance.
Weekly MDT focused on proactive care and patients within the Frailty Test and Learn project.
Monthly MDT discussion of patients requiring input from the wider team, including specialist geriatric input where available.
The exact frequency and format of MDT working may change as the project develops.
CLINICAL LEADERSHIP
The post holder will act as Frailty Lead GP within Launceston Medical Centre. Drawing on their experience of working with the wider INT, they will provide clinical advice, education and support to the Launceston Medical Centre team and help develop effective frailty pathways within the Practice and neighbourhood.
INDICATIVE JOB PLAN
The final job plan will be agreed with the successful applicant and may vary depending on the progress and evolution of the INT project. The initial anticipated four-session job plan is:
0.5 session MDT activity.
1.5 sessions project co-design, collaboration, pathway development and implementation.
2 clinical sessions face-to-face appointments and/or telephone reviews as required, predominantly proactive care, with some capacity potentially reserved for same-day or complex frailty patients requiring medical review.
The balance between these elements will be reviewed as the test and learn develops, ensuring that the role remains aligned with the aims of the project and the needs of the wider INT.
GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES
Work in accordance with Launceston Medical Centre policies and procedures and contribute to their review and development where relevant to the frailty service.
Attend relevant internal and external clinical, multidisciplinary and service-development meetings, representing the Practice and contributing to the wider INT where required.
Maintain relevant clinical knowledge and skills through continuing professional development and annual appraisal, including current evidence and guidance relating to frailty and complex care.
Work within GMC standards of good medical practice and maintain positive, collaborative relationships across primary, community, secondary and social care.

East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 16 day(s) ago
Reference: 2429169
Job summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a passionate and motivated midwife to join our maternity team in a role dedicated to reducing health inequalities and improving outcomes for women, birthing people, babies and families.
We are looking for an enthusiastic individual who is committed to making a real difference by identifying and addressing barriers to accessing maternity care, supporting our most vulnerable communities and championing equitable, personalised and inclusive services. This is a fantastic opportunity to influence positive change, develop innovative approaches to care and work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams and community partners to ensure every family has the best possible start.
As a team we are working hard to ensure we put women and families at the heart of everything we do. We are on an exciting improvement journey and can offer you a rewarding, flexible and supportive role providing a full range of midwifery care.
Main duties of the job
The Perinatal Health Inequalities Specialist Midwife will provide senior clinical, strategic, and professional leadership reduce avoidable inequalities in access, experience, and improve outcomes across the perinatal period for women, birthing people, babies, and families in East Kent.
The postholder will work in partnership with communities, service users, staff and multi-agency colleagues to identify barriers to equitable perinatal care and develop, implement and evaluate sustainable improvements. They will ensure that the voices and lived experience of women and families who are least likely to be heard directly shape service design, care pathways and quality-improvement priorities.
East Kent has communities experiencing significant deprivation, coastal and rural isolation, transport and digital exclusion, language barriers, insecure housing, migration and asylum-related challenges, and varying levels of trust in statutory services. The postholder will lead work that responds to these local needs, including engagement with refugee and asylum-seeking families, Nepali-speaking communities, women and families who book late or do not consistently engage with care, and people experiencing complex social, psychological or practical barriers.
The role will operate across community and hospital settings and will support the Consultant Midwife to provide an equity lens to perinatal strategy, clinical governance, quality improvement, education and patient experience.
About us
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 800,000 people. Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: 'People feel cared for, safe, respected and confident that we are making a difference'. We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called 'We care'. It's about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day. We're looking for compassionate people to be part of our improvement journey for the patients, families and carers we care for every day.
Please note that if you require a Certificate of Sponsorship to work in the UK you must declare this on your application form, even if you currently have a certificate of sponsorship or a work permit for another role and are already working in the country. Please note we are only able to sponsor candidates for a Skilled Worker Visa for roles that are eligible at the time of application.

Job responsibilities
Key responsibilities
Clinical leadership and expert perinatal practice
Act as an expert resource for colleagues on health inequalities, barriers to engagement, trauma-informed care, culturally safe care, personalised care, and reasonable adjustments.
Provide senior midwifery advice in complex situations where there are concerns regarding access to care, communication, engagement, care coordination or potential inequity.
Support the development of individualised, trauma-informed and culturally responsive care plans for women and families with complex circumstances.
Promote early identification of women who may require additional support, ensuring that referral pathways are clear, proportionate and non-stigmatising.
Work collaboratively with community- and hospital-based midwives to improve continuity, communication, and safe transitions between services.
Maintain clinical credibility through an agreed clinical component of the role. This should be purposeful and equity-focused, for example through targeted clinics, outreach, complex-care coordination or observational work across services, rather than routine redeployment to fill staffing gaps.
Ensure all care and advice are provided in accordance with the NMC Code, Trust policies, safeguarding requirements, information governance and current national guidance.
Advocate for women and families while balancing autonomy, informed choice, infant wellbeing and safeguarding responsibilities.
Reducing barriers to access and engagement
Identify practical, cultural, structural and service-related barriers that prevent women and families from accessing timely perinatal care.
Lead the development of targeted, accessible approaches to early booking, antenatal screening, maternity education, birth preparation, postnatal support and infant feeding.
Work with services to reduce missed appointments and late presentation through flexible, accessible and proportionate approaches, rather than punitive or exclusionary processes.
Support accessible communication, including professional interpreters, translated information, easy-read materials, visual resources, and alternative communication methods.
Promote the use of professional interpreting services for all sensitive or clinical conversations. Children, family members and friends must not be used as interpreters except in immediate emergencies where no safe alternative is available.
Work with local partners to address barriers such as transport, travel costs, lack of phone credit or internet access, unfamiliarity with appointment systems, and difficulty navigating services.
Ensure pathways are inclusive of women whose immigration status, previous experiences, fear of authorities or distrust of services may affect engagement.
