You will hold an individual caseload, working as a Care and Treatment Co-ordinator and contribute to improving the lives of young people experiencing mental distress.
As we progress our service improvement program within Specialist-CAMHS we see this important post as central to transform the way we provide support and treatment for children /young people and families. Furthermore, we offer the opportunity for further learning and professional development within HDUHB with robust supervision and close links to local Universities to promote career progression.
Applications are invited from highly motivated and experienced nurses with practical and theoretical knowledge of mental health assessment and who are able to offer evidence based therapeutic interventions for young people with Specialist-CAMHS presentations.
This is a fantastic career move that brings with it a lifestyle changing opportunity to work in beautiful West Wales and experience the benefits of rural life and beautiful sweeping coastline
