If you can answer yes to these questions then we want you to apply for our band 6 posts in West Wiltshire CMHT.  We have redesigned the model of care based on identified pathways and we are looking for clinicians who are skilled or have an interest in training to deliver interventions to service users in the non-psychotic pathway.
