Support Services to the Director of Integrated Care to Implement the Brent Community Health Educators Framework.

The framework is intended to fund provider/s to deliver innovative Health Educator models that will align with the priorities contained in the Brent Health Matters programme. Successful models will assist in the delivery of key priorities and interventions within the Brent Health Matters programme by working with the community to reduce the impacts of Covid-19 on the community whilst tackling health inequalities: reducing variation in life expectancy and long-term health conditions and developing a system wide understanding of the cultural and local reasons why people do not engage with NHS services, which in turn will inform future planning.

The Brent Community Health Educator Partners Framework will - provide a mechanism with which to develop and implement the role of Health Educators to enable the achievement of key outcomes of the Brent Health Matters programme.

The Health Educators role:

Individuals who are truly connected to, and representative of, the diverse communities in our borough and act as the link between the community and partners responsible for the delivery of the Brent Health Matters Programme by delivering key health messages to and from the community. They will work with organisations and Brent Health Matters teams to create innovative methods for engaging with communities on the priority outcomes.

The approach to recruitment will ensure that key community groups are represented, and that the recruitment process will select only high quality candidates.

Management - Community Health Educators will be expected to deliver presentations, training, education and signposting to support for individuals, community and faith groups. The prioritisation of this support will be guided in partnership with communities, NHS and council partners. The provider will be responsible for managing the posts and ensuring that these day to day requirements are met.

Monitoring of activity and impact of Community Health Educators - Council and CCG partners will provide a light touch set of KPIs against which activity will be recorded and reported.
