  • Playing a key role in the care and rehabilitation of mental health patients
  • Meeting patients daily, providing tailored, support plans in line with their specific diagnosis/prognosis

  • Building trusting relationships with patients, putting them at ease
  • Listening and talking to patients, offering advice and reassurance
  • Working closely with other mental healthcare professionals to agree the most appropriate treatment plans for those in your care
  • Working with and advising relatives and carers on patient conditions, outlooks, treatment, and progress
  • Keeping medical records up to date
  • Regularly carrying out any standard physical health checks that may be required, such as monitoring patients' vital statistics, blood tests, etc.
  • Administering medication as appropriate
  • Talking through available therapies, support networks, social activities that may help to improve mental health and wellbeing
  • Managing workloads and shift patterns for yourself (and sometimes others)
  • Maintaining a positive attitude, even in difficult situations
  • Promoting mental health initiatives, reducing stigma associated with mental health
  • Staying up to date with mental health best practice and theory
