Crisis Response Unit Coordinator

2 weeks ago


Northampton, United Kingdom Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Full time

As part of the development of our new Crisis Response Unit Service (CRU), we are looking to implement a Band 6 Professional. The role will predominantly involve the co-ordination of the CRU Service.

The NHS Long Term Plan requests that all systems have access to an improved emergency response for mental health in conjunction with the existing emergency services. It is accepted that a large proportion of conveyance to or attendance at Emergency Departments could be avoided in the community with a more timely response by existing mental health crisis services. We also believe that a more local response to individual crisis would see service users supported much closer to their homes in more appropriate pathways and alternatives to existing crisis locations. This will be a service that can respond to community emergencies within 1 hour rather than the current 4 hour response.

The Band 6 will seek to respond to all EMAS/IRH and Professionals requests for an emergency response by mental health services. This will include crews at incidents and any agreed deployments from the EMAS control room. We would also look to support with appropriate mental health transportation and mental health act related activity.

This role will be predominately based out of Highfield House Northampton and the crew will attend calls from across the County.

Crew members will be part of a multi-skilled Mental Health Team and could be supporting individuals in their homes and various other community and residential settings.

This service will model a Trauma Informed based approach and a training package will be delivered to staff as part of their specialised induction along with other bespoke and service tailored sessions.

This roles requires high level co-ordination and organisational skills as well as interpersonal skills and experience of working with individuals who are in crisis as well as a sound knowledge of existing Community resources is essential.

KEY DUTIES

To liaise and communicate effectively with statutory and non-statutory mental health agencies regarding identification of individuals with mental health needs who are admitted to the general hospitals.

To maintain protocols for effective communication between both local mental health services, 3rd sector partners and other interested organisations.

To assist the Band 7 Clinical Team Lead and the rest of their Team with the day-to-day management of the Crisis Response Unit.

To work as a key member of the Crisis Response Unit. Offering a range of interventions for individuals with a wide range of mental health difficulties, in line with the service operational policy.

To offer education, opportunistically to individuals and Carers in order to improve their knowledge and skills of mental health, and reduce the stigma of mental health.

There will be an expectation that out of hours support will be provided within this role, and that the post holder will be able to provide cover for the service Countywide, working on a shift pattern across a 24/7 basis.

Supporting colleagues with mental health assessments of individuals within the crisis care pathway, addressing the holistic aspects of their health needs.
