These practitioners support leadership teams through complex case work, share their expertise with colleagues, lead on practice development across the organization and complete quality assurance tasks, including case file audits.&nbsp;The Adult Social Care workforce in Lewisham is relatively stable, but there remains a need to respond to social change, welcome innovation, and address the demand for constant service improvement.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A recent innovation has been to reposition our Advanced Practitioners, so they are located where they are most required – in Social Work and Occupational Therapy Teams across Adult Social Care and Mental Health.
