Would you like to work in a proactive, friendly and supportive team of different disciplines.

Taking this on board we have developed a robust supervision programme leaving staff feeling supported and informed and also looked at staff training. Skilling staff in working with complex emotional needs such as Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder we use an intervention called Structured Clinical Management (SCM) which is an evidence based approach and training on this will be provided. We can also offer opportunities for training within the DBT service in Wiltshire.

Alongside this we also offer additional in house training to all staff as well as new starters on how we can best work with service users who have a trauma background.
