This post is predominately Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm, some flexibility is expected in line with role and responsibility.

Key to this role is the liaison work you will be expected to carry out to promote close links with the inpatient wards, E.D, Psych Liaison services and the CRHTT to improve transitions of care for patients moving between the Adult Locality Team and the crisis pathways.

You will be expected to undertake operational duties when needed (for example, rostering, leave management, peer supervision, investigation) as delegated by the Team/Service Manager to ensure the service operates on a day-to-day basis.
