We are looking for a motivated and compassionate Band 6 Children & Young People (CYP) Continuing Care Nurse to join our Continuing Care Team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in ensuring children and young people with complex health needs receive high-quality, person-centred care that enables them to achieve the best possible outcomes. Working within a supportive multidisciplinary team, you will be responsible for assessing, coordinating, reviewing, and case managing children and young people who are eligible for Continuing Care, ensuring care is delivered in line with the National Framework for Children and Young People's Continuing Care.

Main duties of the job

About the Role

As a CYP Continuing Care Coordinator, you will manage a caseload of children and young people with complex health needs, undertaking comprehensive assessments, coordinating care packages, and reviewing ongoing care to ensure services remain appropriate and effective. Working closely with the CYP Continuing Care Lead and a wide range of health, social care, education, and voluntary sector partners, you will help deliver safe, effective, and high-quality services while supporting the ongoing development of the Continuing Care programme. You will also contribute to service improvement initiatives, providing high-quality information, analysis, and reporting to support informed decision-making and effective resource planning.

Key Responsibilities

Assess eligibility for Children and Young People's Continuing Care in line with national guidance.

Coordinate, review, and case manage Continuing Care packages for children and young people with complex health needs.

Develop and maintain effective relationships with children, families, carers, and partner organisations. Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams to ensure coordinated, person-centred care.

Support the planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of Continuing Care programmes and projects.

Prepare reports, correspondence, and documentation to support service delivery and governance.

Analyse complex information to support decision-making and service development.

About us

We manage an annual budget of £4.9billion to commission safe, highquality and accessible health services for 1.7million people living in Norfolk and Suffolk.

We work with hospitals, GP practices, dentists, pharmacies, community, mental health and ambulance services, alongside local councils and voluntary organisations, to improve care. We involve local communities in shaping decisions and use their insights to improve services. As a statutory NHS organisation, we are accountable to NHS England and the UK Government.

Our role is to ensure services meet current and future needs by setting local NHS strategy, allocating funding, maintaining quality and safety standards, improving access, reducing health inequalities and enabling joinedup care.

Norfolk and Suffolk include rural, coastal and deprived communities, with an olderthanaverage population. Around half of residents live in rural or coastal areas, where access can be harder, and about 219,000 people live in the most deprived areas, where early deaths are significantly higher. These factors shape our planning and focus on reducing inequalities.

Our vision is for people to live longer, healthier lives with access to safe, joinedup, patientcentred care. We prioritise improving healthy life expectancy, reducing inequalities and ensuring consistent access to highquality services.

We work across five local Places and partner with NHS providers, councils, the VCFSE sector and communities to deliver locally responsive care.
