We are looking for a Mental Health Practitioner to work within Hartlepool One Life Primary Care network.

Ideally you will have skills in delivery of the front end interventions to aid patients stay within a primary care setting.

Main duties of the job

We have an exciting opportunity for a Mental Health Practitioner to working with a Primary Care Setting. Main duties of the role will include;

  • Work with patients who have a severe mental illness and/or complex emotional needs who do not meet the criteria for secondary care services and are too complex for IAPT services to support shared decision-making about self-management; facilitate onward access to treatment services; and provide brief evidence-based psychological interventions, where qualified to do so, where the intervention can be safely offered outside of a multi-disciplinary mental health team
  • Work closely with other PCN-based roles to address wider patient needs, e.g. PCN clinical pharmacists for medication reviews, and social prescribing link workers for access to community-based support
  • Operate without the need for formal referral from GPs, including accepting some direct bookings where appropriate
  • Provide a consultation, advice, triage and liaison function, supported by the local community mental health provider through robust clinical governance structures to maintain quality and safety, including supervision where appropriate
  • Supervision, training and personal development are a key aspect of the post, along with regular supervision/appraisal which we see as an important aspect to the role.
