This is a community based post offering outreach work to families with specific emphasis on children andyoung peoplewith acute and complex mental health problems and who present with high risk to themselves and/or others. Clinic appointments andand outreach work will comprise the main part of the work.

The team is a specialist CAMHS team working with the more high risk and challenging adolescents (13-18) from across the borough of Barnet.

The post holder will be an active member of the integrated team providing follow up for young people who have attended local A&E departments with a mental health concern, and short to medium term crisis and outreach support to families and individuals in order to contain risk and prevent need for tier 4 intervention. There is the expectation of case management within the role, particularly for the young people who remain in the team on a longer term basis due to chronic and/or high risk presentations and complexity.
