S-camhs Substance Misuse Team Lead
2 weeks ago
Our newly formed S-CAMHS Substance Use Team builds on the strength of our existing work with young people at risk of, or experiencing, substance misuse and mental health difficulties.

The team will be tasked with identifying those most at risk of current and future harm from co-occurring substance use and mental health difficulties.
The team lead will work alongside a clinical psychologist to enable practitioners in the team to engage these young people in evidence informed, assertive outreach work with the aim of building resilience and reducing risk.
This will involve direct work with individual young people, their parents and carers and consultation and liaison with those supporting young people from partner agencies.
