Working collaboratively alongside other CMHT's professionals and SU's to produce a recovery plan and lead on co-produced formulation of community/social needs

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

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

Awareness of treatment outcomes, recovery tools, care planning, assessment of risk

Knowledge and understanding of the Mental Health Act 1983 amended 2007

Previous experience in similar roles such as Support Worker, Mental Health Worker or Keyworker would be an advantage.
