  • Assessment and management of client care needs through Dialog +, crisis plans, monitoring of SU's progress and reports in care reviews with the MDT team
  • Outreach work within the local community, networking with grassroots and statutory services and connecting clients to local resources
  • Supporting SU's in discharge planning from CMHT and building sustainable networks in the community
  • Facilitate and co-deliver psychoeducation and other wellbeing activities/peer groups where possible

We offer a supportive, inclusive and resolution driven work environment where your contributions are recognised and valued. As a member of our team, you will have the chance to grow both personally and professionally while making a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.

We are looking for candidates who bring a combination of passion, expertise, and dedication to the table. To excel in this role, you should possess:

  • Understanding of the issues and concerns of mental health service users
  • Understanding and practical knowledge of recovery, and coproduction
  • Experience of working autonomously, and in a team or a group environment
  • Experience of liaising with other agencies and partners
  • Awareness of treatment outcomes, recovery tools, care planning, assessment of risk
  • Awareness and understanding of the functions of MDT
  • Knowledge and understanding of the Mental Health Act 1983 amended 2007
