Milton Keynes, United Kingdom CNWL Full time

Search here to find a new job, a new career, an opportunity
to up skill or to simply change your career direction.

Become part of our team.
We care for you as much as you care for others.

There’s a place for you at CNWL.

We’re passionate about delivering first-class patient-centred, safe and effective care, whether it is in a hospital setting, in a community clinic or in the patient’s own home. Patients are at the heart of everything we do.

Providing top quality care depends on our ability to employ the best people.
We’re always looking to recruit outstanding people who will go the extra mile to support our patients, colleagues, teams and the Trust. With every new employee we’re hoping to find our future leaders and we’ll support our staff by providing opportunities to develop your career.

With a diverse culture and equally diverse range of opportunities across mental health, community services, addictions, eating disorders, learning disabilities and more – whatever stage of your career you're at, there's always a place for you at CNWL.

Are you a talented psychology graduate who is passionate about using your psychological knowledge to make a real difference to the lives of people in our local communities?

Have you completed the Clinical Associate in Psychology master’s programme?

Have you got experience working with young people with mental health difficulties?

Can you bring knowledge and experience of the local communities the Trust serves to your work?

CNWL is excited to be offering further opportunities in England for talented and passionate psychology graduates to join NHS Mental Health services as Clinical Associates in Psychology (CAPs).

The MK Sp CAMHS Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment Team (MK Sp CAMHS-CRHTT) is a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) of mental health professionals providing a 24-hour, 7 day per week service to young people experiencing an acute psychiatric/psychological crisis. The team provides an alternative to acute hospital admission by delivering intensive community-based interventions or assists in shortening the inpatient stay by facilitating early discharge and support back to the community.

Main duties of the job

The role entails close working with a wide range of agencies and colleagues, including acute hospital staff, education, social care and other teams across Milton Keynes Mental Health Service, to support the psychological care of patients in a mental health emergency. In addition, part of the role involves helping acute hospital staff to understand and meet the psychological needs of their patients. This occurs both through formal training sessions and joint clinical management of patients through ward work and outpatient appointments, staff support, complex case formulation and frequent attender work. All interventions will encourage adherence to a good quality service model that guarantees more people have good mental health, be recovery focused, safeguard a focus on both mental and physical health and assume reduced stigma, discrimination and minimal harm.

You will receive supervision from a qualified clinical psychologist and be delivering interventions in line with your developing skill and competence.

Detailed job description and main responsibilities

In CNWL, psychological professions have a strong sense of leadership and a distinct professional identity.

The post holder would be expected to work closely with experts-by-experience, local communities, Community and Voluntary and Social Enterprises, to co-produce and co-develop services. The post holder will be involved in partnership working, liaising with various stakeholders in the system, e.g. GPs, schools, social care etc, and will play a key role in developing our links with external agencies. The post holder will also be involved in raising the awareness of the complexity of the health and social challenges many people face and the impact this has on mental health & well-being and vice versa. Key aims are to help people build resilience, feel more connected to their community, and to instil a sense of belonging.
