Summary

Working alongside the Programme Director and system partners, the Programme Lead will be responsible for the development and delivery of programmes of work across all programme workstreams designed to achieve the aims and objectives of the Intermediate Care and Prevention Programme.

Intermediate Care and Prevention Programme Aims

The BNSSG Intermediate Care and Prevention Programme brings together system partners across health, care and VCSE partners in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire to improve and transform intermediate care services.

The programme will create a joined up home first intermediate care system that can support people across BNSSG to regain and maintain their independence, prevent hospital admissions, enable timely discharge and recovery, reduce avoidable use of bedded and long-term care, remove inequalities and achieve better value for money across health and social care resources.

Bristol Foundation Trust is hosting a small team on behalf of all system partners to provide the change and programme management support needed to transform intermediate care services.

The programme team works across and alongside a wide range of system partners, including Bristol Foundation Trust, Sirona Health and Care, Bristol City Council, South Gloucestershire Council, North Somerset Council, the BNSSGG Integrated Care Board, primary care, mental health, VCSE sector, independent providers and other partners.

Bristol NHS Foundation Trust brings together more than 28,000 staff to deliver over 160 clinical services across thirteen hospital locations, operating from three main sites at Southmead, Bristol city centre and Weston.

With an annual turnover of £2.3 billion, we are now one of the largest NHS trusts in the United Kingdom. Our hospitals are spread across Bristol and Weston, join us and you can enjoy the very best of both worlds; city living within a stone’s throw of the countryside or beside the seaside, both with easy access to all that the South West has to offer. 

Bristol NHS Foundation Trust values all people as individuals. As an equal opportunities employer actively working towards a diverse workforce we aim to recruit and retain a workforce which represents the rich diversity of the local population at all levels and are committed to designing our services around the needs of individual patients and those around them.
