Job description

The role involves providing holistic support to older adults suffering from a serious mental illness or SMI. Service users will have a single or range of diagnosed conditions, will be known to ELFT and will therefore have a range of needs, including symptoms of anxiety or depression, or have a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Specifically, the Older Adult Community
Connector will work with multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs) who sit within primary care networks or PCNs (clusters of GP practices) across Newham, and will support people in accessing appropriate local services, embodying a true example of wrap around support. 
Older Adult Community Connectors will work with ELFT under what is called the Mental Health Transformation Programme. The ethos of the programme is recovery focused, exploring needs through complexity (rather than diagnosis), a focus on a person’s strengths and assets, and on the wider determinants of health and wellbeing.
Above all, the Older Adult Community Connector will be a strong networker who is able to engage multiple stakeholders for the betterment of service user welfare and outcomes. 
Your formal location will be Stratford Advice Arcade at 107-109 The Grove London E15
1HP, as well as within the Primary Care Network in Newham.
