Mental Health Practitioner
4 weeks ago
An exciting opportunity for an experienced Mental Health Practitioner to enhance clinical skills and develop a new approach to supporting individuals within a primary care setting. This post is part of the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) and will invite supporting Mid Dorset (PCN) which covers 9 GP Surgeries-Queens Avenue, The Atrium, Fordington Surgery, Prince of Wales Surgery, Poundbury Doctors Surgery and Portesham, Cerne Abbas Surgery, Milton Abbas Surgery and Puddletown Surgery.
If you are passionate about supporting individuals with their mental health and have excellent clinical skills, can work autonomously this is the job for you.
Employment in this post requires an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which the Trust will cover the cost of. Applicants who subscribe to the DBS update service are able to present a valid DBS certificate instead of requiring a new check.
Work collaboratively with practices within identified network to agree priorities for each local population.
Take a person centred care approach to enable collective decision-making with patients
Proactively and effectively engage with PCN MDT meetings to provide clinical updates.
Work closely and creatively with colleagues in Community Mental Health Teams to determine the most appropriate service for a patient whose needs exceed those which can be met in a primary care setting.
Work closely with local Community Mental Health Teams by attending Team meetings, jointly meeting patients and generally integrating with the team to help form a seamless care pathway for patients
Use complex decision-making to inform, formulate plans and manage episodes of care within a broad scope of practice.
At Dorset HealthCare we’re on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We’re a dynamic, forward-looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.
We do things differently here - it’s one of the reasons the CQC rated us ‘outstanding’ in 2019. It’s also why 95% of patients across our services say they have a good or very good experience of our services and 89% of staff feel they can really make a difference. Whether you’re looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.
Our 7,000-strong workforce is at the heart of what we do and our success is a testament to our brilliant people. We're all about building a workplace for the future, we believe in equal opportunities and we celebrate diversity. We’re an inclusive workplace, where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves.
Working with us you’ll be part of a strong team, challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know. And you’ll be working towards our vision to be better every day through excellence, compassion and expertise in all we do.
