Job Description
Looking for a role where you can make a real difference while enjoying genuine flexibility and support?
This Discharge to Assess (D2A) Social Worker opportunity offers a hybrid working model, with the flexibility to work from home for part of the week while remaining closely connected to hospital and community teams. You'll join a local authority that values collaboration, professional development, and employee wellbeing.
Working within a fast-paced multidisciplinary environment, you'll play a vital role in supporting people to leave hospital safely and receive ongoing assessment in the most appropriate setting, promoting independence and achieving positive outcomes.
Benefits include:
Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) – A secure, defined benefit pension providing long-term financial security.
Excellent annual leave – 27–33 days plus bank holidays, giving you the opportunity to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Hybrid and flexible working – A mix of hospital, community, and home-based working to help you manage your workload effectively.
Stable public sector employment – Enjoy long-term career security within a supportive local authority.
Career development opportunities – Clear progression routes into Senior Practitioner, Advanced Practitioner, and management positions, alongside ongoing training and learning.
The Role
We're recruiting experienced Discharge to Assess Social Workers to join a busy and supportive team focused on delivering safe, timely hospital discharges.
Working closely with health professionals, therapists, ward staff, and community partners, you'll complete strengths-based assessments following discharge, coordinate care and support, and ensure individuals receive the right services to maximise independence and reduce unnecessary readmissions.
You'll be responsible for:
Completing Care Act assessments within the Discharge to Assess pathway.
Supporting safe and timely discharges from acute hospital settings.
Undertaking Mental Capacity Assessments and Best Interest decisions where required.
Coordinating care packages and community-based support.
About You
To be considered, you'll need:
A recognised Social Work qualification.
Current Social Work England registration.
Experience working within Hospital Discharge, Discharge to Assess, or Adult Community Services.
A sound understanding of the Care Act, Mental Capacity Act, and strengths-based practice.
Experience using Mosaic or a similar case management system is desirable.
If this sounds like the next step in your career, we'd love to hear from you.
