Senior Mental Health Practitioner

3 months ago


Newport, Newport, United Kingdom Isle of Wight NHS Trust Full time

We are recruiting for Band 6 Registered Mental Health Practitioners (Nurse, Occupational Therapist or Social Worker) who wish to join us.

You should share our passion and drive to ensure that our patients receive quality and compassionate care.


We are looking for Mental Health Practitioners who have a high level of skill in the assessment and care of people who present to ED in mental health crisis and those who have mental health needs during their inpatient stay in the acute hospital.


The MH&LD Liaison Team provides assessments, advice, and reasonable adjustments for people with mental health needs and learning disabilities accessing treatment at St Mary's Hospital.

We aim to improve the parity of care for people of all ages with mental health and learning disabilities in the acute hospital and work with their family and carers to ensure they have the best possible care and treatment.


The MH&LD Liaison Team works across the full age spectrum and provides a 24-hour service across seven days of the week.

Additionally, MH&LD Liaison Team collaborates with Ambulance service to support people with mental health needs and learning disabilities in the community through the Mental Health Rapid Response Vehicle service (MHRRV).

This position is suitable for a highly motivated, compassionate person who can work under pressure.

We therefore welcome applicants with existing crisis and liaison experience but also those who have experience working with older adults, HTTs, CMHTs or mental health inpatients.

You should have excellent written and verbal communication skills and be able to interact at all levels.

There will be opportunities for you to participate in the teaching and training of health professionals in ED, medical and surgical wards.

This is a challenging but rewarding role, within a busy and evolving multidisciplinary service.


Across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight healthcare services are evolving and transforming to meet the continuing care needs of our population.

Now is a very exciting time to join Isle of Wight NHS Trust as we enter this period of change.


This year Isle of Wight NHS Trust and Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust have strengthened our partnership and formed a group giving us an opportunity to work together to be innovative in improving patient care and outcomes as well as improving the experience and opportunities for our people across the two organisations.


We have also been working with other local NHS Trusts across our region to create a new organisation, bringing together all community, mental health and learning disability services from across Hampshire and Isle of Wight.

Subject to approvals, the aim is for the new Trust - Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust - to be formed by April 2024.


People employed in our community, mental health and learning disability services by the Isle of Wight NHS Trust on 30th April 2024, will transfer to the new organisation under Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) on 1 May 2024.


The Isle of Wight is a unique and stunning gem located off the South Coast of England, a short ferry journey from Portsmouth and Southampton, with journey times taking from as little as 10 minutes.

The island offers an amazing coastline with beautiful countryside, year-round events, festivals and award-winning attractions.
