SOCIAL CARE QUALITY CHECKING COORDINATOR

We are commissioned to carry out Quality Checks of support services where people with a disability or mental ill health live, including Supported Living settings, Residential Homes, Day Services, Assessment and Treatment units and individual homes. The purpose of the Quality Checks is to ensure that people who live in these settings are safe, and living healthy, happy and meaningful lives and that the support they receive is appropriate to their needs.

All our Quality Checks involve a Quality Checker (an Expert by Experience) with lived experience of disability or mental ill health working alongside a Quality Checking Coordinator. On visits, we talk with people living in these settings to gather information regarding their quality of life and the quality of care and support they have.

The Coordinator s role is to organise the checks and facilitate them on the day, whilst the Expert by Experience asks most of the questions. The Coordinator is responsible for compiling all the information gathered during the Quality Check and producing a report which is shared with the Provider and Commissioners. The Coordinator also has line management responsibility for a small number of the quality checkers on the team.

As part of this role, you will also provide floating coordination support for a range of other projects.

We are proud to have been recognised with an Inclusive Employer award but realise that people from some backgrounds are under-represented in our workforce and across the wider charity sector. A more diverse workforce will enable us to deliver even more impact, and we particularly encourage applications from communities which are currently underrepresented. This includes people from ethnically diverse communities, people with lived experience of disability or mental ill health, and people who are neurodiverse.
