Welcome to CNWL Community Eating Disorders Service for Children and Young People. Eating Disorders is a specialism within children’s mental health, therefore finding candidates with rich experience is really important. It would be fantastic to have staff ‘ready-to-go', but we appreciate the need to grow and develop people in this field and improve young people’s access to care.
In this role you will provide senior nurse leadership, line management and supervision to allocated members of the CYP nursing team. You will also contribute to the wider nursing initiatives within the All-Age Eating Disorders Service and the wider CAMHS Eating Disorders Service line, as appropriate.
What do we do?
The recommended evidence-based intervention indicated for this patient group is Family Therapy for Anorexia Nervosa (FT-AN) and Family-Based Treatment (FBT) for eating disorders which all clinicians in the team deliver.
We offer systemic therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT-E) for those who an individual therapy approach is more appropriate. In addition, we also offer a parent group to support those caring for a young person with an eating disorder. We link with CNWL CAMHS for joint work (for co-morbidities) and other agencies as necessary.
Who are we?
The team consists of nursing, psychology, assistant psychologists, systemic psychotherapists, a dietician, occupational therapists, paediatrician and psychiatry. The leads of the service are a Clinical Team Lead, Consultant Psychiatrist, Lead Psychologist, Lead Family Therapist and part of the All-Age Eating Disorder service which is overseen by Head of ED and a Clinical Director for ED. More recent developments are improved transition work, development of an Intensive Community Treatment Team and new projects with our neighbours at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.
Where are we?
Our main base is in Chelsea (next to Chelsea and Westminster Hospital). Thanks to the heavy NHS influence many local cafes, restaurants and bars give discounts ranging from 10-20% to all NHS staff.
Our second site is based at Roxborough Road which has the tube station of Harrow-on-the-Hill very close by, and clinicians typically work there once or twice per week with the option for this to be frequent if preferable to the staff member.
We look forward to welcoming you to our team and helping you to grow. If you have any questions about us and the role please get in touch.
