Summary
A Vacancy at South West London and St George's Mental Health NHS Trust.
• Are you interested in improving the health access experience and outcomes for patients and reducing race disparities in our service?
• Are you interested in exploring workforce attitudes on the use of coercive measures in acute mental health services?
• Would you like to use your management skills to support the lead quality improvement methodology in a progressive acute environment?
If the answer is ‘yes’, we would like you to come and join us in this exciting unique programme.
The Ethnicity, Mental Health Improvement Programme(EMHIP) is a three-year innovative locality-based service improvement programme consisting of five key interventions to reduce ethnic inequalities in access, experience and outcomes of mental health care in South West London.
It is a collaborative partnership, South West London ICS, South West London and St Georges Mental Health NHS Trust and Wandsworth Community Empowerment Network (WCEN) and local BME communities.
The post holder will support the EMHIP Project Lead to manage the implementation for a one-year pilot project. Key intervention 3 of EMHIP aims to reduce the use of coercive and restrictive practices in adult, acute inpatient wards at SWLSTG, and support the scaling up across all inpatient acute wards to deliver the desired outcomes:
• Reduction in coercion
• More consensual care
• Improved therapeutic engagement and therapeutic alliance between service users and staff.
• Service user ownership of decisions concerning their care and treatment.
• Better treatment adherence
• Improved family involvement in care and treatment
• More accountable and transparent clinical decision-making.
You will support the EMHIP Project Lead contributing to the development of a detailed bespoke programme liaising with staff, to promote new ways of working that support a positive and proactive approach to care that helps to reduce the need for coercive and restrictive practice, through the implementation of a Framework for Shared decision making.
The post holder will work closely with the EMHIP Project Lead and CEN Lived Experience Assessment Panel to utilise Mental Health Mediators (MHM) effectively in their role. They will be based on the pilot wards engaging with the service users, staff and mediators and then liaising directly to the EMHIP Project Lead supporting with supervision, debriefs and reflective practice.
