On occasion you may be required to support other urgent care services such as UTC's, home visiting and the Clinical Assessment Service (CAS) which run 24/7 services. There is daily GP support available remotely or in person as well as well-established referral pathways into specialities., LCHS recognises the increasing demand for more flexibility in working practices in order to accommodate the personal goals and commitments that employees experience at different stages during their working lives. Flexible working opportunities such as part-time working, compressed hours, job shares, and hybrid working models can help staff to balance their personal and work commitments. Arrangements can be put in place if it can be shown that the needs of the individual can be balanced with those of the service and the impact on other team members, enabling the Trust to recruit and retain skilled staff, raise staff morale, reduce absenteeism and respond to changing service needs more effectively.
