Qualified Emhp or Children's Wellbeing Practitioner

2 weeks ago


Peterborough, United Kingdom Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Full time

Attention all Education Mental Health Practitioners (EMHP) and Children’s Wellbeing Practitioners (CWP). We have an opportunity to join our well established established Mental Health Support Team in Peterborough.

MHST’s provide mental health and emotional wellbeing support to children and young people and their families and carers through schools and colleges. Each MHST supports a cluster of schools and colleges in a geographical locality, covering a population of around 8,000 children and young people. The MHST’s sit within CCS’ Emotional Health and Wellbeing Service.

The MHST’s work with education settings to provide early intervention for mild to moderate mental health difficulties and provide help to staff in schools and colleges on their ‘Whole School Approach’ (WSA) to mental health.

The postholder, with appropriate supervision, will work as an autonomous and responsible practitioner as their training affords in educational and health care settings alongside a team of mental health professionals and within the scope of their local job description, to engage in:
Develop and deliver evidence-based interventions under supervision to children, young people, parents and carers in an educational/community setting who are experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties.

The post holder will work alongside a team of mental health professionals delivering a wide range of evidence informed interventions, under supervision.

Develop and practice evidence-based skills under supervision to carry out holistic and child-centred mental health assessments, including risk assessments.

Helping children and young people within these settings who present with more severe problems to rapidly access more specialist services.

The post holder will also be responsible for supporting and facilitating staff in education settings to identify and where appropriate manage issues related to mental health and well-being.

Use the EMHP/CWP skills, knowledge, and abilities to deliver a service based within education settings that builds on and reinforces but does not replace those initiatives that already exist within these environments.

Rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, we are proud to provide high quality innovative services across most of the east of England that enable people to receive care closer to home and live healthier lives.

There’s one reason why our services are outstanding - and that’s our amazing staff - who, for the seventh year running, rated us incredibly highly in the national staff survey.
