6 days ago

Winchester, Hampshire, United Kingdom Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The closing date is 3rd Jul 2024

Job summary:

"I love seeing first-hand the improved outcomes for the young people we work with that we have directly impacted, it is an amazing feeling. As well as this, the job is flexible which is great for a good work/life balance and no 2 days are the same."


Closer2Home is a specialist intensive home treatment service that supports young people with acute mental health problems in their homes by providing intensive input and support using a bespoke package of care tailored to each young persons needs.


We operate 365 days a year from 8am-8pm to offer flexibility to young people at times when they need it the most.

The teams work in an integrated way, supporting one another to provide the service either remotely or sometimes by crossing borders into another trusts area.

This means that a YP's needs are not restricted by boundaries, staff sickness has less of an impact on service delivery and YP receive a better service where ever they live.

For you this will also increase opportunities to develop your career, in a way that works for you.


This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled passionate clinician to develop their career and make a powerful impact on the lives of young people when they need it most.

Hospital admission can be lifesaving but often has a detrimental effect on young peoples as well.

Closer2Home provides a service that helps young people in crisis to remain in their own home, in their own community where they can get involved in meaningful activities that are worthwhile to them.


Main duties, tasks & skills required:

Closer2Home:

  • Provides assessment and intensive support for young people with mental health needs who present high levels of risk
  • Supports assessment prior to admission to inpatient care (hospital), where required
  • Delivers planned intensive home or communitybased treatment services, as well as specialist intensive home treatment for young people whose needs exceed the threshold for Tier 3 CAMHS
  • Supports discharge to facilitate timely discharge from hospital
  • Supports the reduction of health inequalities in children and young people mental health pathways
  • Each team has been modelled to have an optimal number and skill mix of staff to effectively address the needs of the young people the service will support.

In the role, you will:

  • Work collaboratively with community CAMHS, children's services, colleagues involved in 'transforming care,' bed and case managers and local inpatient units; using an interagency approach to provide the best care for the young people.
  • Be expected to provide clinical leadership to their local Closer2Home team
  • Be integrated in a Wessex & Dorset wide system of clinical and operational governance, a new infrastructure that will utilise robust preadmission careplanning, a 'single point of access' for intensive home treatment and inpatient services, goal setting at admission and supported inpatient discharge.

About us:


Southern Health is one of the largest NHS Foundation Trusts in the UK, specialising in mental health and learning disabilities, as well as offering physical health community-based services.


With a workforce of more than 7000 and a footprint that spans more than 200 sites across Hampshire, we're wholeheartedly committed to providing the best possible healthcare, reaching a range of diverse communities, whilst placing patients and staff at the forefront of all our endeavours.


We are currently working closely with other NHS Trusts to integrate all our collective community, mental health, and learning disability services.

Our new organisation, to be known as Hampshire and Isle of Wight NHS Foundation Trust, is set to launch in July 2024.


The transformation will happen in staggered stages; Hampshire CAMHS, part of Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust joined Southern Health in February 2024, with Isle of Wight NHS Trust mental health and community services transitioning in early May 2024.

The final combination of Southern Health and Solent Trusts is anticipated to occur in July 2024, when the new organisation will be formed.


Our new Trust will continue to cater to the unique needs of different communities, making healthcare across the county more accessible, as well as offering staff more opportunities for career development, training and partnership working.

Join us as we embark on this exciting journey to shape the future of healthcare in Hampshire.
