Calling all Band 6 Registered Mental Health Nurses  looking for a new challenge

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a part time substantive position within the  Later Life Liaison Psychiatry  at the Bristol Royal Infirmary. We are looking to recruit a RMN  who has an interest in working with older people.

We are looking for an individual who is interested in working with older  adults with a primary focus on those service users who present following an episode of self-injury to the Emergency Department. However, the team offer learning opportunities to work alongside service users experiencing medically unexplained symptoms, functional disorders and severe and enduring mental illnesses while admitted for physical health treatment at the BRI.

The Adults of Working Age (AOWA) team covers a 7 day working week, 365 days a year – with a pattern of shifts 8am-midnight, however flexible working is considered to ensure promotion of your own work/life balance.

You will be joining an established and experienced team, who we invite and encourage you to spend time with to see how exciting this job can be as no two days are ever the same

The team are looking for a like-minded individual, who is enthusiastic and self-motivated, with an eagerness to learn, or those who already have excellent biopsychosocial assessment and risk management skills.

 

Main duties of the job

 

Mental Health Liaison practitioners  utilise clinical expertise, education and management to ensure a seamless service for patients, carers and staff.

The priority of the post holder will be undertaking specialist psychosocial assessments, reviews and advice regarding ongoing management of Later Life patients. This may include delivering a range of psychosocial interventions to individual patients and their families as appropriate.

The post holder will be assisting and supporting general hospital colleagues in making decisions about treatment and care in complex situations; at all times with a focus on advocating for our patients. 

The post holder will use high level communication skills, both written and oral and have an ability to engage with challenging and/or acutely distressed individuals in sometimes potentially hostile and/or antagonistic situations. 

The post holder will provide a communication structure between the general hospital, secondary MH services, primary care and non-statutory services as a means of ensuring the highest possible standards of patient care.

The Later Life Liaison Psychiatry Team provide mental health assessments and care for Older Adults within UHBW. The Team sits within the wider Liaison Psychiatry Service and comprises a Consultant Psychiatrist, senior medical staff, Senior Practitioner, mental health liaison nurses and administrators.
