Taunton, United Kingdom Somerset NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic, experienced specialist practitioner, to deliver a high quality, comprehensive mental health service for deaf children, young people and their families experiencing mental health difficulties.

The Regional Deaf CAMHS team provides a service for young people with comorbidities and complex needs including a combination of mental health neurodevelopmental and deaf needs. The team has links with the National Deaf Teams to support supervision and ensure alignment with national thinking, best practice and training to drive ongoing development.

This is a great time to join our team as we are participating in national service development projects to develop trauma-informed service strategies, a nationwide autism pathway and pathways for young people affected by language deprivation. Training is available and encouraged both within Somerset FT and national team.

For some young people, this work may involve supporting young people and their families/ carers. For others, this may be providing specialist advice and consultation to those that support the young person, including education and social care teams.

The team is based in Foundation House in Taunton and cover the whole of the South West region. Many of our team are working from home for the majority of the time, however travel to schools, colleges, and other bases across the South West is needed on a regular basis.
