**About the Role**:
The Liaison and Navigation Service (LaNS) has been established to improve the experience of people and their health outcomes through information sharing, integration of care across primary, secondary, and tertiary services, and coordination across health and community services. It focusses on the provision of the right care, at the right time, at the right place by the most appropriate provider in partnership with the consumer and their care supports. This includes a focus on providing care outside the acute setting with outreach to clients in the ACT community.

The service is comprised of a multidisciplinary team that assists patients and their supports to navigate the multiple services involved in their care. The service provides, and supports patient-centred, trauma-informed, strengths-based, integrated, and coordinated care. It works closely with acute and community services, and across health and psychosocial services, to reduce the challenges patients and their supports face when required to access multiple services, to ensure the highest quality of care.

The role will undertake assessment from an interdisciplinary perspective and coordination of treatment/therapies and psychosocial supports from the allied health perspective to ensure the facilitation of timely and safe access.

It is an opportunity to ensure the highest quality of care, information and support is provided when consumers and their supports need it, so that they can navigate the complexities of their care.

The role will be a point of coordination with external health and human services, and work with CHS services and current specialty care coordinators to support consumers and improve the formal networks and pathways for information sharing, coordination, and ED avoidance.

The position will work to develop the clinical scope of the role with the intention to undertake practical clinical support and interventions that support consumers to stay well in their community, and work directly with outpatient and community services to minimise the need for acute care presentation.
