Job responsibilities
A social prescriber is a link worker who empowers people to take control of their health and wellbeing through giving time, focusing on what matters to me and taking a holistic approach. The post holder works to connect people to community groups as well as statutory services for practical and emotional support. Social Prescribers support existing groups to be accessible and sustainable and help people to start new community groups, working collaboratively with all local partners.
The post holder will be deployed in a specific Primary Care Network and Enhanced Access Service, working in partnership with the practice teams in that network to support patients and promote lifestyle changes, preventing ill-health by means of behaviour change techniques. The post requires: good understanding of social prescribing, well-being, and community services and a good understanding of; and ability to provide; motivational and behavioural techniques.
Social prescribing can help to strengthen community resilience and personal resilience, and reduces health inequalities by addressing the wider determinants of health, such as debt, poor housing and physical inactivity; and by increasing peoples active involvement with their local communities. It particularly works for people with long-term conditions (including support for mental health), for people who are lonely or isolated, or have complex social needs which affect their wellbeing.
We recognise that existing social prescribing schemes may employ link workers on a different salary scale, however this proposed salary reflects the complexity of the situations that people present with, and the need for a significant level of multi- agency working, including supporting community groups to receive referrals.
