This role involves researching local community groups and services so that our Living Well nurses have a list of services that patients can be referred on to.
Our co-ordination centre is the central hub for all patient referrals to the wide range of services that RGP offer. We are setting up a central resource of other local services and community groups that patients who are not suitable for our services can be referred to. Initially we are looking for some help collating information from our own professionals and contacting external organisations to understand what services they offer. Once the central resource is in place, we will need ongoing support to keep it up to date
Main tasks
sourcing information about external resources, community groups and services • understanding the referral criteria for each service • establishing a current resource list of groups, services, contacts and referral criteria for the co-ordination centre and our nursing and medical teams to use for sign posting patients • updating the resource list regularly with any revised information, referral criteria, new services/groups • maintaining good relationships with local organisations and community group contacts
What are we looking for?
• good IT and internet research skills
• good communication skills with the confidence to approach RGP professionals and external organisations
• the ability to use your own initiative and liaise with community organisations
• someone with knowledge of local community and support services/organisations is desirable
• someone who is reliable and flexible

About Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care
When serious illness strikes, we're here to help people in our community get the best out of every day. From the moment of diagnosis our specialist teams work with each individual to provide the compassionate care they need, in the place that's best for them. This is what we call: extraordinary care, anywhere.
We know that life-limiting illness doesn't just affect the individual, so we care for those around each patient, too – both during an illness and through bereavement.
It takes a whole community to provide this care to everybody who needs it. Our volunteers, supporters and champions in the community are the driving force behind everything we do.
