Autism Specialist Practitioner, Band 6, Tower Hamlets Autism Service (THAS), 0.6 WTE, fixed term 6 months Maternity Cover

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced clinician (Nurse, Occupational Therapist, Social Worker or Speech and Language Therapist) with an interest in developing their skills and experience in diagnostically assessing and working with autistic adults. The successful candidate will work as part of a well-integrated, capable multidisciplinary team delivering high quality evidence-based diagnostic assessment and post diagnostic support services for this group.



The Tower Hamlets Autism Service (THAS) is a specialist diagnostic and brief intervention service. Designed in accordance with NICE guidelines, we operate an open referral system, accepting referrals from any source when it is thought that an adult living in Tower Hamlets may have an autistic spectrum condition. We use screening tools and specialist assessments (ADOS-2) alongside clinical experience and expertise to diagnose autism spectrum conditions in adults (without a learning a disability).

The main purpose of the role is:

- As part of the multidisciplinary team, to screen and assess for autism spectrum conditions in adults (without a learning disability).

- To plan, organise and facilitate post diagnostic support, individual and group interventions, including profession specific assessments and interventions to those diagnosed by the service.

- To provide specialist advice, training, consultation and liaison to support other ELFT staff, social care staff, Primary Care Colleagues and staff in third sector organisations working with autistic adults.

This is an exciting career opportunity for a dedicated applicant with existing direct experience assessing and working with autistic adults, or for those with relevant experience who may wish to specialise in this developing field.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive – so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.

Kindly refer to the job description and person specification that is attached to the vacancy profile.
