Our Long Term Care Specialist Nurses, who used to be known as Nurse Assessors, are also now providing support through a recently developed Long Term Care Pathway which entails supporting secondary care with the Continuing NHS Health Care and NHS Funded Nursing Care processes.

Responsibilities will include scrutinising applications for NHS Continuing Healthcare against the criteria for funding, referring back to originator with any queries/issues, attending case/review conferences to discuss new and current packages, managing complex discussions and negotiating resolution as appropriate taking into account both the clinical and financial implications/risks to the client and the Local Health Board, providing daily management to a team of band 6 Long Term Care Specialist Nurses on a daily basis which includes human resource issues and a reporting mechanism to the senior managers.
