Job description

Senior Nurse Assessor CYP Continuing Care

The closing date is 08 December 2025.

Continuing Care is the name given to a package of care that is arranged and funded by the NHS for children and young people who have an unmet health need that cannot be met by universal and specialist services.

We are currently looking for a motivated and enthusiastic children's nurse with case‑management experience who has excellent clinical knowledge as well as communication and assessment skills. The applicant should be resilient and able to work autonomously but also work as part of a team. Good knowledge of safeguarding, learning disability and mental health conditions and multi‑agency working is required.

Main duties of the job

An understanding of the continuing care framework is required alongside experience of case‑management and multi‑agency working as an essential requirement for the post, as close collaboration takes place with community and acute services as well as education and social care.

This is a community‑based post based in Birmingham and Solihull. The post holder will be expected to travel covering the whole area, with some out‑of‑area travelling required. We are currently working from home to support children and families.

The role is varied with the practitioner undertaking assessments, attending MDTs and delivering training to multi‑agency professionals.

This is a great opportunity and an exciting time to be part of an experienced and committed service. If you are hardworking, innovative, and committed to making a difference to the lives of children and young people, then we look forward to hearing from you.

The successful applicant will also need to work across the locality in collaboration with other team members and colleagues in other organisations and ICB Departments to ensure quality services are delivered to patients.
