Dunstable Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) has undergone a process of transformation/ redesign in order to focus on providing prompt assessment and intervention at the point of need. By separating out some of the functions of a traditional CMHT, the new structure will additionally allow more of a focus on recovery for those with enduring mental health problems and those accessing CPA, within a linked recovery service.
Community mental healthcare will increasingly be provided closer to home, within primary care networks.
Dunstable CMHT has the following structure:
Closing date: 27th July 2025
Interview date (AAC panel):13th August 2025
Front-end blended teams with triage function + Providing care for complex patients not on CPA (PCN Case load)
Managing recovery-focused care of individuals on CPA. (Recovery Case load)
ADHD Case Load
