Local Care Workforce Strategy

Creating and implementing a local workforce strategy capable of supporting the delivery of the models of care in the Local Care Strategy (LCS), Camden's response to the Five Year Forward View.

This project will require two main areas of focus:

• Carry out an analysis of the current workforce capacity and pressures across the system - to baseline the performance and understand the gaps.

This will require building on the work currently being undertaken for Camden by the Health London Partnership (HLP) by broadening the scope to include other community health care professionals in addition to mapping local secondary care provider workforce and social care workforce.

Additional information: I am writing to inform you that, in response to feedback, the closing date will be extended until 5:00pm on Friday 6th 2017

1. The Workforce Supporting Strategy

Camden's workforce group (CEPN - Community Education Provider Network comprised of representatives from local health and social care providers) is tasked with creating and implementing a local workforce strategy capable of supporting the delivery of the models of care in the Local Care Strategy (LCS), Camden's response to the Five Year Forward View.

This project will require two main areas of focus:

As such this work will include consideration of demand and supply for key roles, recruitment and retention, induction, leadership development, training, performance management, workforce health initiatives, outcomes and monitoring of impact for the Camden health and social care system.

2. Scope of work and key deliverables

The local workforce strategy is required by March 2017, and needs to be capable of supporting the implementation of new models of care across local health and social care partner organisations (including all aspects of the employee lifecycle).

Certain specific actions are likely to be required to support this implementation.
