SouthendonSea Essex, United Kingdom Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Primary Care Mental Health Practitioner (PCMHP) Band 6
We are excited to announce with the mental health transformation funding we are able to recruit Primary Care Mental Health Practitioners.


Successful candidates will contribute to the delivery of an enhanced Primary Care Team as part of a new approach to the delivery of Mental Health Primary Care services in Castlepoint and Rochford PCN.


This is a hybrid post with the successful candidates based both in GP practices and working from home. The primary care mental health practitioners work with existing Primary Care teams to triage, assess and offer follow up treatment to patients registered with GPs in the local area.


The post can be offered as a developmental Band 5 post and the post holder will be supported and trained to develop their skills and knowledge under supervision. The Band 5 staff will increasingly work independently, but always under supervision according to their knowledge, skills and competency.


The post will assist with undertaking physical health checks for patients on the SMI register and support patients who are discharged from secondary care.


This is an exciting role for a Primary Care Mental Health Practitioner to support the way forward in the delivery of Community Mental Health Services. The post will be hosted by Essex Partnership University Trust (EPUT) with day to day management within Primary Care.
As a Primary Care Mental Health Practitioner you will be a highly skilled and motivated Mental Health Nurse, or Allied Healthcare Professional, and be part of the Enhanced Primary Care team at the forefront of establishing this innovative development in Primary Care Mental Health Services. As a highly competent and proficient practitioner you will be able to work autonomously and be confident in your ability to provide evidence based psychological and non-psychological treatments for common mental health disorders.


This will be in the context of a wider programme of mental health service transformation aimed at creating more capacity and supporting services to become more inclusive and accessible by removing boundaries between services and organising care, based on individual need. EPUT are looking for motivated staff who shares our Trust values of Care, Learn and Empower. Season Ticket Loans
NHS discounts for staff
Excellent Training facilities and opportunities
Buying and Selling annual leave scheme
The opportunity to work bank shifts and expand knowledge and experience in other areas
Salary Sacrifice schemes including lease cars and Cycle to Work
Day One Flexible Employer

The Trust supports and actively encourages flexible working for all employees. If appointed, you will have the opportunity to apply for a flexible working request from the first day of your employment
