The CHC Nurse Co-ordinator leads assessments and reviews for NHS Continuing Healthcare, ensuring eligible patients receive appropriate care and funding. The role requires current UK nursing registration, relevant clinical experience, sound knowledge of NHS Continuing Healthcare legislation and assessment frameworks, and strong documentation and care-planning skills. The successful candidate should communicate effectively with patients, families, social care teams and healthcare professionals, manage a caseload independently, and make evidence-based decisions. Organisation, confidentiality, safeguarding awareness and the ability to work across community and healthcare settings are essential. Experience of multidisciplinary working and knowledge of local health and social care services would be advantageous.
Norfolk and Suffolk Integrated Care Board is part of England’s NHS integrated care system, bringing together health and care organisations to improve services across Norfolk and Suffolk. Its responsibilities include planning NHS services, managing public funding, reducing health inequalities and supporting joined-up care between hospitals, general practices, community services, mental health providers and local authorities. The organisation works with residents, clinicians, councils and voluntary-sector partners to develop services that are accessible, safe and focused on individual needs. Roles within the ICB can involve commissioning, clinical leadership, patient assessment, quality improvement and partnership working. Employees generally benefit from NHS terms and conditions, including annual leave, pension arrangements, learning opportunities and flexible-working policies, subject to the requirements of the post.
The United Kingdom offers substantial opportunities in healthcare, social care, technology, engineering, education and professional services, with the NHS being a major employer. Its culture is diverse and generally values privacy, punctuality, inclusion and work-life balance. Lifestyle varies from busy cities and historic towns to rural areas and coastal communities; Norfolk and Suffolk are known for countryside, beaches and a slower pace of life. Living costs are highest in London and major cities, while East Anglia is often more affordable. International nurses usually need NMC registration, English-language evidence and, where applicable, a Health and Care Worker visa sponsored by an eligible employer. Check current UK visa rules, qualification-recognition requirements and NHS sponsorship availability before relocating. Housing, transport and childcare should be arranged early, and newcomers should budget for deposits, immigration fees and everyday living expenses.
