Crynodeb
The Mental Health Support Teams are a service designed to help meet the mental health needs of children and young people in educational settings. The MHS Teams are made up of Senior Clinicians, CAMHS Practitioners, Education Mental Health Practitioners (EMHPs) and Children well being practitioners (CWP). They are based across education settings as an additional resource within a whole-system approach to promote resilience and well being, support earlier intervention, enable appropriate signposting and deliver evidence-based support, care and interventions.
There are currently eight MHSTs across Luton, Central Bedfordshire and Bedford, working across 110 schools in total. The successful candidate will be employed by Bedfordshire & Luton CAMHS (ELFT), where the MHSTs deliver evidence-based therapeutic interventions, such as Low-Intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (LI-CBT) and emotional wellbeing interventions. You will be equipped with the necessary skills, knowledge and capabilities to work as a qualified core professional/EMHP/CWP, as an autonomous and responsible practitioner within your scope of practice, alongside education and health colleagues.
You will be confident in providing support to young people and families with anxiety, low mood and challenging behaviours. You will be flexible and creative in responding to the needs of the school populations, with excellent support from your team and supervision. You will also be able to adapt to working remotely, prioritising access to services and resources.
Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive – so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
