Summary
Do you want to be part of a forward thinking, well respected, fast moving, multi-disciplinary young person’s Urgent Care Team? Can you deliver compassionate care to those young people that present in mental health crisis?
We have an exciting opportunity for a Mental Health Practitioner to join our CAMHS Urgent Care Team in North Derbyshire. The Team is a well-established part of the wider CAMHS Service and is a supportive, well organised team with a culture of friendly, multi-disciplinary work based at Chesterfield Royal Hospital.
You will have experience of direct work with children and young people who have mental health problems and you will be adept at undertaking mental health assessments and interventions. You will have the necessary knowledge in assessing risk and drawing up robust safety plans.
You will have a core professional qualification eg Nurse, Social Worker, Occupational Therapist or HCPC registered AHP.
The Urgent Care Team provides a rapid response service to children and young people and families who are presenting with acute mental health or emotional disturbance to a degree where the risk they pose indicates that an inpatient admission may be required.
You will offer mental health and risk assessment, formulation and brief intervention with those young people under 18 who are presenting with urgent mental health needs. The team operate between the hours of 08am-11pm over seven days with plans to develop 24 hour on-call cover (NHS Agenda for change pay enhancements apply.)
Working for your organisation
The team have well established links with Paediatrics, our ED Department, and Children’s Social Care, Education and other partner agencies across North Derbyshire.
Whilst you care for our young people and families, in turn we recognise the importance of caring for you – clinical supervision, career & personal development and health & wellbeing support are all core to our service. If you’re keen to develop particular interests within child & adolescent mental health, come and talk to us about how we could support that.
