Changes to the ABIC Role
Changes to the Acquired Brain Injury Co-ordinator role
As from December 2007 I shall no longer be working for BSUHT and based at Hurst wood Park but the West Sussex PCT within the Continuing Health Care Team. I shall be managing the ABI patients funded by CHC in residential or rehabilitation placements.I will continue to be home based but will be working at the PCT on Tuesdays and Thursdays for part or all of the day and attending other meetings as appropriate. Obviously this will mean that I will have less time to attend other meetings and to visit patients and their families. My new job description is currently being re written to take into account these changes. I will still try to get to see people as soon as I can but there may be a longer than usual delay before I am able to do so.
Along with managing CHC placements I will continue with my role of service development and working closely with other agencies, especially Adult Services. The West Sussex ABI Network will continue to meet and I will keep the website updated with information, news and training as before. www.westsussexabi.co.uk
