Team Lead Islington Transitions Team

4 months ago

London, United Kingdom Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Islington Transitions Team as Clinical Team Lead. The team is a non-case-holding team, comprising of CAMHS and AMHS clinicians, who advise on transitions from CAMHS to AMHS and where young people (18-24) present with complex needs, are not engaging with mainstream services and require innovative care packages.

The Clinical Team Lead chairs the fortnightly transitions meetings, conducts audits and evaluations, and contributes to service developments in the growing area of Young People's Services.

Specifically, we are looking for clinicians who are already embedded within C&I or one of our partner CAMHS agencies who can help us strengthen links with existing services.

To provide a Core Mental Health Psychological Therapist service to the Islington Transition team and to act as team leader.

The Transition Team is a small team of senior clinicians recruited internally from Adult Mental Health Services (AMHS) and from Child & Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS, Whittington Trust) in the London Borough of Islington.

The team recently trained in Applied Mentalization-based integrative treatment (AMBIT) and the team lead is expected to promote and embed the model in the team and when collaborating with other teams/ agencies as part of the implementation of the Community Mental Health Framework.

Requests for help in facilitating the transition of young people from child to adult mental health services come to the Team from CAMHS, AMHS and from some related Local Authority Teams, which could include Leaving Care, young people’s Substance Misuse service and specialist staff working with 16+Children in Need.

The Transition Team does not hold or take case responsibility but rather seeks to support complex transitions by providing advice, consultation and assessment.

The effectiveness of the team is evaluated by audit and outcome measures for evidence of improved transition for young people.
