Manchester, United Kingdom Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Manchester Case Management Team

Manchester Case Management (MCM) is a multi agency service with locality teams across the city which proactively supports people identified as at high risk of hospital admission as a result of long term physical health conditions.

The service brings together the skills and experience of GPs, Nurses, Mental Health Practitioners, Social Workers and Pharmacists to provide intensive and flexible support to people who are struggling to stay healthy, safe and well at home.

The service shares the care of patients across the disciplines, providing support through clinic appointments, home visits and telephone calls. The MCM service focuses on what is important to each individual patient and collaborates with people and their carers and families to agree goals and aspirations.

The MCM service is embedded in the three localities; North, Central and South Manchester. The service is delivered through the Neighbourhood model. MCM typically supports people for between 3 and 6 months enabling them over time to better manage to live well at home and engage with community groups and mainstream services as appropriate.

We currently have an opportunity for two Senior Mental Health Practitioners to join the team. One role will be based in the Central locality team, and the other in the North locality team.

The Senior Mental Health Practitioners offer mental health advice and support to the MCM model.

**Input may include**:
Advice and support to the wider MDT

Signposting and advice to clients

Brief intervention that can be offered within the timescale of MCM input (CBT informed approaches, psychoeducation, self help techniques, relapse prevention work).

Liaison and referrals on to other services identified as appropriate (Talking Therapies, CMHT, GP)

Carer education and signposting

The post holder will work with colleagues of all disciplines within the MCM teams to develop their knowledge, skills and confidence in working with people with mental health difficulties, promoting understanding of the impact that these issues can have on individuals, their families and the wider community.

The post holder will support the development of effective relationships within the MCM teams, Neighbourhood teams, and partner agencies to promote collaborative working and seamless pathways. This will require the ability to communicate effectively across multiple providers of services in Greater Manchester including statutory and voluntary sector providers. The post holder will also maintain regular contact with other colleagues within the trust and other statutory / non statutory services including inpatient wards, Community Mental Health Teams, Talking Therapy services, Home Based Treatment Teams, GP practices and local A&E MH liaison services.

Greater Manchester Mental Health (GMMH) Foundation Trust employs over 6,400 members of staff, who deliver services from more than 160 locations.

We provide inpatient and community-based mental health care for people living in Bolton, the city of Manchester, Salford, Trafford and the borough of Wigan, and a wide range of specialist mental health and substance misuse services across Greater Manchester, the north west of England and beyond.

Greater Manchester is one of the world's most innovative, original and exciting places to live and work. From the beauty of the surrounding countryside to the heart of the vibrant inner city with great shopping, entertainment and dining options.
