Reference: B0160-26-0024
Job summary
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Western Dales Primary Care Network as a Social Prescribing Link Worker, working directly with patients and helping to make a meaningful difference to their health, wellbeing and everyday lives.
Working across our communities in Sedbergh, Bentham and Kirkby Lonsdale, you will support people to explore what matters most to them, identify the challenges affecting their health and wellbeing, and connect them with the right support, opportunities and services.
Social prescribing is about seeing the whole person, not simply their health condition. You will have the time to listen, build trusted relationships and work alongside patients to identify their goals, build confidence and independence, and help them make positive and sustainable changes in their lives.
You will become part of our established personalised care team, working alongside other Social Prescribing Link Workers, Care Coordinators and Health and Wellbeing Coaches, as well as colleagues across our GP practices and wider community.
This is a varied and rewarding role for someone who enjoys working with people, building relationships and finding practical and creative ways to help. No two days will be the same, and the work you do has the potential to make a genuine difference to people living across the Western Dales.
Main duties of the job
The Social Prescribing Link Worker will work proactively with patients, GP practices, multidisciplinary teams and community organisations to provide personalised, practical and compassionate support. Key responsibilities will include:
Take referrals from clinicians and multi-disciplinary teams, and work closely with other PCN team colleagues to triage those patients and allocate to the most appropriate person
Discuss the persons needs with them, based on guidance from the referrer, and identify a range of options that could assist the person to improve their independence and health and wellbeing
Strengthen community and personal resilience, focusing on what matters to me and taking a holistic approach with each individual case
Co-produce a simple personalised care and support plan to improve health and wellbeing introducing or reconnecting people to community groups and statutory services
Manage and prioritise own caseload, in accordance with the needs
Have a strong awareness and understanding of when it is appropriate or necessary to refer people back to other health professionals/agencies, when the persons needs are beyond the scope of the link worker role e.g. when there is a need requiring a qualified practitioner
Identify new, and work in partnership with voluntary and statutory organisations.
About us
Western Dales Primary Care Network is a collaboration of three practices; Bentham Medical Practice, Lunesdale Surgery and Sedbergh Medical Practice with a combined population upwards of 20,000.
We are looking for a Social Prescribing Link Worker to work within a team of social prescribers, care coordinators and health and well-being coaches, developing relationships and personalised care plans to support patients in reaching their identified goals.

This role will play a key role in delivering anticipatory, personalised care for patients living with long-term conditions and frailty across community and care home settings. With a clinical background in managing conditions such as diabetes, COPD, heart failure, and multimorbidity, the postholder will reduce avoidable deterioration, support independent living, and improve quality of life through holistic assessment, care coordination, and early intervention. Working within an integrated multidisciplinary team, the nurse will champion continuity, equity, and proactive planning particularly for vulnerable and housebound cohorts.

As an autonomous practitioner, the successful candidate will ideally be a non-medical prescriber, able to demonstrate critical thinking and decision-making relating to long term conditions.
We welcome applications from individuals who enjoy providing outstanding patient care, have a keen interest in being part of a team, striving to improve patient experience and outcomes, with excellent communication and IT skills.
We are also happy to consider applications from individuals who are already employed by other NHS organisations and explore secondment opportunities for the right candidate with that organisation.

- Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments, including cognition, mobility, nutrition, and social support
- Apply specialist knowledge in managing long-term conditions, such as Diabetes, Respiratory Disease and/or cardiovascular conditions.
- Develop and review personalised care and support plans in collaboration with patients, families, and MDTs
- Monitor for early signs of deterioration and intervene to prevent crisis or hospital admission
- Facilitate advance care planning, DNACPR discussions, and end-of-life care coordination
Coordination & Collaboration
- Work closely with care home staff, community matrons, geriatricians, ARRS roles, and social care teams
- Participate in MDT meetings and contribute to integrated neighbourhood team (INT) working
- Liaise with voluntary sector partners and social prescribing link workers to address non-clinical needs
Quality & Improvement
- Maintain accurate, timely documentation in shared care records and contribute to PCN dashboards
- Use data to identify equity gaps and target interventions for low-uptake or high-risk cohorts
- Contribute to service evaluation, patient feedback, and continuous improvement initiatives
- Support education and training for care home staff and carers around frailty and LTC management

Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check
As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone.
What is a DBS Check?
A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role:
Standard DBS: Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.
Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police thats considered relevant to the role.
Enhanced with Barred Lists: Includes all of the above, plus checks against the childrens and/or adults barred lists.
Who Needs a DBS Check
Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role.
The Costs for a DBS
At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred.
For more information about the cost of the various types of DBS, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dbs-fees-are-changing-in-december
DBS Update Service
Candidates are also expected to register with the DBS Update Service which must be completed within 30 days of the certificate being issued. This helps streamline future employment checks and supports safer recruitment practices. For more information, please visit the DBS Update Service.

Job summary

Advanced Childrens Play and Health Care Worker Carer Level 3
Location: Greater Manchester Role Type: Permanent, Full-time Hours: 37.5 hours per week. Flexible availability is required Monday to Sunday on a rolling rota, in line with service delivery needs. Shifts will fall within our core operating hours of 6:00am10:00pm.
Salary: £29,484 per annum (£15.12 per hour)
Make a Difference Where It Matters Most
Lagans Foundation is a specialist childrens charity providing home health care, respite and support to families of children and young people aged 019 with complex health needs.
Our charity was founded from lived experience of caring for a child with complex congenital heart defects and feeding difficulties, and from understanding just how difficult it can be for families to find the right support once they are at home.
Today, our carers work alongside families across the North West, providing individualised care and respite to children and young people with a wide range of complex and high-dependency health needs.
For some families, having a skilled carer they trust means a parent can rest, spend time with another child, have a meal, take a shower or simply have some time knowing that their child is being safely and compassionately cared for.
For the child or young person, our role is to understand their individual needs, their communication, their routines, their preferences and the clinical care that keeps them safe and well supported.
No two children, families or shifts are the same.
Were Looking for an Advanced Carer
We are now looking for an experienced Advanced Childrens Play & Health Care Worker Carer Level 3 to join our specialist care team.
This is not an entry-level care position.
You will already have experience supporting people with complex or high-dependency health needs and have the confidence and clinical competencies required to provide more advanced care.
You will work in children's own homes and communities, providing safe, compassionate and individualised support while giving parents and unpaid carers valuable respite.
Depending on the individual child, this could include complex respiratory support, enteral or parenteral nutrition, seizure management, medication, personal care, positioning, communication support and other specialist interventions.
Just as importantly, you will get to know the individual child and family and understand what good care means for them.
What Youll Be Doing
As a Carer Level 3, you will:
- Provide safe, high-quality care to children and young people with complex and high-dependency health needs.
- Work confidently within individual care plans, risk assessments and clinical protocols.
- Deliver advanced clinical interventions within your assessed competencies.
- Recognise changes or deterioration in a child's condition and escalate concerns appropriately.
- Administer medication safely in accordance with care plans, training and policy.
- Provide personal care while maintaining dignity, comfort, privacy and respect.
- Support feeding, positioning, mobility, communication and respiratory needs where required.
- Understand each child's individual way of communicating and respond to their preferences and needs.
- Build professional, trusting relationships with children, parents and families.
- Provide families with confidence that their child is receiving safe and compassionate care while they take a much-needed break.
- Maintain accurate and timely care and clinical records.
- Support and mentor other carers in clinical practice.
- Share your experience and help less experienced colleagues develop their confidence and competence.
- Work closely with Area Care Team Leaders, our Clinical Lead and other health and care professionals.
- Identify and escalate clinical, safeguarding or care concerns promptly.
- Maintain your professional development, mandatory training and clinical competencies.
The Experience Youll Bring
For our Carer Level 3 position, you will need:
- Level 3 Health & Social Care qualification or higher
- Demonstrable experience in complex/high-dependency care
- Experience supporting children or young people with significant health needs
- Experience providing personal care
- Experience supporting medication and clinical care
- Confidence working independently within a family home
- The ability to remain calm and respond appropriately when a child's condition changes
- An understanding of professional boundaries and when to seek clinical support
- Excellent communication skills with children, families, colleagues and professionals
- A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle with business-use insurance
- An Enhanced DBS covering the Child and Adult Workforce
Advanced Clinical Competencies
You will have experience and competency in:
- Tracheostomy care essential
Experience and competency in one or more of the following would be advantageous:
- NP suction / airway clearance
- Rescue medication for uncontrolled epilepsy/seizure management
- TPN management
- CPAP / BiPAP support
- Advanced airway management
All appointments at Carer Level 3 will also be subject to completion of Lagans Foundation's required internal competency assessments and Level 3 clinical sign-off before carrying out relevant procedures independently.
What Makes Care at Lagans Different?
Technical competence is essential but it isn't everything.
When you enter a family's home as a Lagans carer, you are being trusted with someone incredibly important to them.
We therefore look for carers who understand that excellent complex care is also about dignity, consistency, patience, communication and trust.
Some children we support may communicate verbally and be active within their community. Others may communicate non-verbally, have very limited mobility or require significant clinical intervention throughout their care.
Good care looks different for every child.
Your job is to understand the person you are supporting, work safely within their individual care plan and help provide the family with reliable, compassionate support.
Our Values
At Lagans Foundation, we expect our team to demonstrate our values in the way they care for families and work with one another:
Passion Taking pride in providing excellent care and making a meaningful difference to families.
Resilience Remaining calm, dependable and adaptable when caring for children with complex needs.
Integrity & Communication Being honest, professional and clear, following care plans and speaking up when something isn't right.
Empathy Understanding that every child and every family's circumstances are different and providing support without judgement.
Develop Your Career With Lagans
Joining us at Level 3 doesn't mean your development stops.
We want experienced carers to continue building their clinical knowledge, confidence and leadership skills.
Depending on your career ambitions, development could include further formal qualifications and progression towards roles such as:
- Nursing Associate
- Registered Children's Nurse
- Senior carer positions
- Leadership opportunities within our care service
Progression is based on competency, qualifications, experience, performance and the needs of the organisation.
Why Join Lagans Foundation?
Lagans Foundation was created because families caring for children with complex health needs can need support that doesn't always fit neatly within traditional services.
We work to help bridge the gap between health services, community care and the realities families experience at home.
As part of our team, you will be joining a charity where your skills have a direct impact not only on the child you care for, but on their wider family.
Youll also receive:
- £26,325 annual salary (£13.50 per hour)
- 28 days holiday (FTE)
- Pension scheme
- Health Cash Plan through Hospital Saturday Fund
- Perkbox
- Unlimited counselling
- Flexible benefits and salary sacrifice options
- Specialist clinical training and competency development
- Regular supervision and support
- Ongoing professional development

Job description
Job responsibilities
Advanced Childrens Play and Health Care Worker Carer Level 3
Location: Greater Manchester Role Type: Permanent, Full-time Hours: 37.5 hours per week. Flexible availability is required Monday to Sunday on a rolling rota, in line with service delivery needs. Shifts will fall within our core operating hours of 6:00am10:00pm.

Make a Difference Where It Matters Most
Lagans Foundation is a specialist childrens charity providing home health care, respite and support to families of children and young people aged 019 with complex health needs.
Our charity was founded from lived experience of caring for a child with complex congenital heart defects and feeding difficulties, and from understanding just how difficult it can be for families to find the right support once they are at home.
Today, our carers work alongside families across the North West, providing individualised care and respite to children and young people with a wide range of complex and high-dependency health needs.
For some families, having a skilled carer they trust means a parent can rest, spend time with another child, have a meal, take a shower or simply have some time knowing that their child is being safely and compassionately cared for.
For the child or young person, our role is to understand their individual needs, their communication, their routines, their preferences and the clinical care that keeps them safe and well supported.
No two children, families or shifts are the same.
Were Looking for an Advanced Carer
We are now looking for an experienced Advanced Childrens Play & Health Care Worker Carer Level 3 to join our specialist care team.
This is not an entry-level care position.
You will already have experience supporting people with complex or high-dependency health needs and have the confidence and clinical competencies required to provide more advanced care.
You will work in children's own homes and communities, providing safe, compassionate and individualised support while giving parents and unpaid carers valuable respite.
Depending on the individual child, this could include complex respiratory support, enteral or parenteral nutrition, seizure management, medication, personal care, positioning, communication support and other specialist interventions.
Just as importantly, you will get to know the individual child and family and understand what good care means for them.
What Youll Be Doing
As a Carer Level 3, you will:
- Provide safe, high-quality care to children and young people with complex and high-dependency health needs.
- Work confidently within individual care plans, risk assessments and clinical protocols.
- Deliver advanced clinical interventions within your assessed competencies.
- Recognise changes or deterioration in a child's condition and escalate concerns appropriately.
- Administer medication safely in accordance with care plans, training and policy.
- Provide personal care while maintaining dignity, comfort, privacy and respect.
- Support feeding, positioning, mobility, communication and respiratory needs where required.
- Understand each child's individual way of communicating and respond to their preferences and needs.
- Build professional, trusting relationships with children, parents and families.
- Provide families with confidence that their child is receiving safe and compassionate care while they take a much-needed break.
- Maintain accurate and timely care and clinical records.
- Support and mentor other carers in clinical practice.
- Share your experience and help less experienced colleagues develop their confidence and competence.
- Work closely with Area Care Team Leaders, our Clinical Lead and other health and care professionals.
- Identify and escalate clinical, safeguarding or care concerns promptly.
- Maintain your professional development, mandatory training and clinical competencies.
The Experience Youll Bring
For our Carer Level 3 position, you will need:
- Level 3 Health & Social Care qualification or higher
- Demonstrable experience in complex/high-dependency care
- Experience supporting children or young people with significant health needs
- Experience providing personal care
- Experience supporting medication and clinical care
- Confidence working independently within a family home
- The ability to remain calm and respond appropriately when a child's condition changes
- An understanding of professional boundaries and when to seek clinical support
- Excellent communication skills with children, families, colleagues and professionals
- A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle with business-use insurance
- An Enhanced DBS covering the Child and Adult Workforce
Advanced Clinical Competencies
You will have experience and competency in:
- Tracheostomy care essential
Experience and competency in one or more of the following would be advantageous:
- NP suction / airway clearance
- Rescue medication for uncontrolled epilepsy/seizure management
- TPN management
- CPAP / BiPAP support
- Advanced airway management
All appointments at Carer Level 3 will also be subject to completion of Lagans Foundation's required internal competency assessments and Level 3 clinical sign-off before carrying out relevant procedures independently.
What Makes Care at Lagans Different?
Technical competence is essential but it isn't everything.
When you enter a family's home as a Lagans carer, you are being trusted with someone incredibly important to them.
We therefore look for carers who understand that excellent complex care is also about dignity, consistency, patience, communication and trust.
Some children we support may communicate verbally and be active within their community. Others may communicate non-verbally, have very limited mobility or require significant clinical intervention throughout their care.
Good care looks different for every child.
Your job is to understand the person you are supporting, work safely within their individual care plan and help provide the family with reliable, compassionate support.
Our Values
At Lagans Foundation, we expect our team to demonstrate our values in the way they care for families and work with one another:
Passion Taking pride in providing excellent care and making a meaningful difference to families.
Resilience Remaining calm, dependable and adaptable when caring for children with complex needs.
Integrity & Communication Being honest, professional and clear, following care plans and speaking up when something isn't right.
Empathy Understanding that every child and every family's circumstances are different and providing support without judgement.
Develop Your Career With Lagans
Joining us at Level 3 doesn't mean your development stops.
We want experienced carers to continue building their clinical knowledge, confidence and leadership skills.
Depending on your career ambitions, development could include further formal qualifications and progression towards roles such as:
- Nursing Associate
- Registered Children's Nurse
- Senior carer positions
- Leadership opportunities within our care service
Progression is based on competency, qualifications, experience, performance and the needs of the organisation.
Why Join Lagans Foundation?
Lagans Foundation was created because families caring for children with complex health needs can need support that doesn't always fit neatly within traditional services.
We work to help bridge the gap between health services, community care and the realities families experience at home.
As part of our team, you will be joining a charity where your skills have a direct impact not only on the child you care for, but on their wider family.
Youll also receive:
- £26,325 annual salary (£13.50 per hour)
- 28 days holiday (FTE)
- Pension scheme
- Health Cash Plan through Hospital Saturday Fund
- Perkbox
- Unlimited counselling
- Flexible benefits and salary sacrifice options
- Specialist clinical training and competency development
- Regular supervision and support
- Ongoing professional development
