Hospital to Discharge Worker

We have an incredible new opportunity for a Hospital to Home Advisor to join Landau. This role offers more than a wage – it’s about the deep reward of guiding young people who’ve faced challenging starts in life toward brighter futures. As a Hospital to Home Advisor, you will be responsible for providing person-centred support to older adults (65+) transitioning from inpatient mental health services to home, promoting independence, reducing isolation and preventing readmission.

Support starts at point of referrals and is time-limited (up to 4 weeks) once discharged. The role works as part of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), supporting delivery of discharge plans and connecting individuals to community-based support.

At Landau, we’re passionate about changing lives and creating futures. As a leading supported employment and training charity, we’re changing over 800 lives each year across the West Midlands, including Telford and Wrekin, by providing pathways to employment, access to education, and support for personal growth and independence. Joining our team means joining a community that values making a real difference—empowering individuals to overcome challenges and realise their potential.

We are a diverse, forward-thinking organisation, dedicated to delivering high-quality, sustainable services that truly change lives and open doors to new beginnings

We are committed to supporting our workforce as much as our mission. At Landau, you’ll receive the Real Living Wage, access to a private healthcare scheme, roadside assistance, and support through our Disability Confident Employer status. We’re proud to be a Gold Award holder for our support of veterans, creating an inclusive environment where all backgrounds and abilities are valued.
