Summary

We are accredited by the royal collage of psychiatry. Then HTT team in Kensington and Chelsea might just have what you’re looking for.
We as a team work closely together and if you would like to be part of a team that looks out for each other.
Location- South Kensington (the team is split into 2 hubs, our other hub being based in North Kensington, St Charles Hospital, so staff are occasionally based on skill mix and service asked to work in the other half)
Located near the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. Working in South Kensington offers a unique combination of a high-urban lifestyle and immediate access to some of London's premier, historic green spaces. Proximity to areas such as Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, and Holland Park offers significant benefits for mental health, physical well-being, and work-life balance.
Nursing, turning lives around and improving patient's wellbeing, the reasons you looked to become a Nurse.
We will empower you to work innovatively, showing a commitment to providing compassionate care and a strong desire to improve patient care.
We want to offer you;
• On-site shadowing for you with our services during the first two weeks, so that you can get a feel of all the areas and what they do to participate in the well-being of our patients. This includes Psychiatric liaison, etc.
To be an active member of the integrated HTT multidisciplinary team and provide individually tailored care packages for adults of working age, and their families/carers, who have severe and enduring mental illness.
To work in a therapeutic, client-centred way and use a range of evidence-based interventions to help promote recovery through individual or joint working with other professionals.
• We are equipped with latest technology including electronic prescribing to reduce time spent on administration and drug rounds and allow more time for care.
• Commitment from the team to develop you as a practitioner by offering coaching and in-house development sessions
• An opportunity to work with a fun, energetic and passionate team who are committed to looking after each other as well as their patients- evidenced by their team outings, away days and local events.

• Flexible shift working hours to provide a healthy work-life balance; Monday to Sunday, no nights and long days (shift work)
• Team Leaders on the team are very accommodating in trying to promote staff to set goals and achieve them.
