Nuneaton Warwickshire, United Kingdom Coventry & Warwickshire Partnership Trust Full time

We are building a Primary Care-based Mental Health & Well-being Team


There are opportunities for Band 5 Primary Care Practitioners (ARRS) who are Registered Professionals to work in our local Primary Care place-based teams in Warwickshire North which includes Nuneaton, Bedworth & Bulkington.


This is an exciting opportunity for dynamic people to join us and build on the existing multi-disciplinary PCN (Primary Care Network) teams to support the mental health and well-being needs of local communities.


You will be employed by Coventry and Warwickshire and Partnership Trust but be embedded within a group of GP practices with a focus on supporting local patients living across North Warwickshire.


These local teams will work in partnership with higher acuity mental health services (delivered in this area by Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership Trust), offering care at the point of need which suits individual patient needs. Each team will work together with support from their practices, to ensure they are delivering the best care they can.


If you are passionate about making a difference and can use your expertise to improve mental health and wellbeing, then we want to hear from you.

This will include facilitating short term case management offering professional advice, joint support and information.

To review patients in primary care and assess where there needs can be best met. To support discussions on those patients in primary care who have been discharged or not engaged with SCMH services.


To provide an opportunity to support primary care and alleviate suffering and distress in a timely way for patients. The roles will enhance patient journeys and create better joint working across primary care and adult secondary care mental health systems and will make it easier for patients to obtain the help they need.


To develop and maintain collaborative links with the third sector to provide clinical advice and support to the Mental Health social prescribers or equivalent within Primary Care. We exist to make a positive difference to the health and wellbeing of people and communities who need our services. We provide a full range of physical, mental health and learning disability services to children, young adults, adults and older adults over many sites across Coventry, Warwickshire and Solihull. The Trust currently holds a 'Good' CQC rating.


We care for you as much as you care for others, and we offer a wide range of support services and benefits to promote staff wellbeing and a good work-life balance, including flexible working.


Our dedicated People Hub brings together all our support services including COPE, our in-house counselling service, emotional support through Staff in Mind, and much more. Our Employee Assistance Programme has a 24/7 helpline for advice and guidance with anything that is on your mind, work-related or not, as well as a salary sacrifice scheme.
