A Vacancy at Northumbria Healthcare - NHCT Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.
Northumbria Healthcare Foundation Trust has an exciting opportunity for a Band 5 Primary Mental Health Worker to join our team. The post is based in our Central Northumberland area which covers areas such as Ashington and Bedlington. The role will provide targeted 1:1 and group based evidenced based interventions to support those with moderate mental health needs, within the ‘getting help sector ‘of the Thrive model. As a service we deliver training to other professionals working across the emotional and mental health pathway and providing advice and guidance through our consultation process.
We are looking for an enthusiastic clinician who are committed to delivering innovative and transformational ways of working to support the young people who access our support, and reaching those who may not. The role includes developing and sustaining positive relationships with the wider Primary Mental Health Team and our external agencies and partners.
Our staff are based in Childrens Centres and work from a number of health bases across the county to promote closer working with our universal services. We will ensure we consider suitable arrangements are made to your work and home base to guarantee suitable travel expenses are provided to support in this role.
We support a blended/hybrid model of office and home working to promote flexible working recognising the value of home life balance.
As a Band 5 you will be supported to develop your skills to deliver a direct clinical role, providing assessment and brief evidence-based individual and group-based interventions to children and young people in an accessible and non-stigmatising environment.
With a strong emphasis on partnership working, this role will include building strong links with a range of universal, targeted and specialist services. The role will provide support to the senior clinicians and universal services through the delivery of consultation models and teaching and training and multi-agency forums and pathways to improve access and capacity building across the wider system.
As a Band 5 Primary Mental Health Worker you will be supervised by a Band 6 Primary Mental Health Worker. We are committed to promoting continued professional development through access to a range of training opportunities including access to local CYPIAPT programmes. High quality internal and external peer and individual clinical supervisions are provided.
