**Job overview**:
Here in West Penwith we are creating a brand-new model as part of the transformation of mental health care in Cornwall. There has never been a more exciting time to work in mental health services, especially in primary care. We want to hear from people who have passion and creativity to help shape and build our new, holistic service in Penzance. We aim to create a space where we understand ‘what matters to someone’ not ‘what is the matter with someone’. Our new team will include a diverse range of people all there to listen, triage and hopefully help with aspects of a person’s life that may adversely affect their mental wellbeing.

We are envisaging a welcoming hub in Penzance initially and we are searching for someone to help us realise this for our patients. You will be supported by a team lead but also be supporting others in a whole team approach for our patients. We encourage anyone to contact us and discuss the role, as there is much to explore about this innovative, new way of working. Being able to sit with a certain level of uncertainty is a must as we plan our new service

Although employed by CFT, this role will be hub based and you will be a valuable member of the primary care network for the GP practices in the Penzance area (inc Marazion). You will be supervised by the team lead mental health practitioner so you won’t be alone but, you’ll also be confident and able to work autonomously.

**Main duties of the job**:

- Communication and Working Relationships- Member of the multi-disciplinary team.
- Develop and improve working relationships with GP’s, other professionals and outside agencies working collaboratively to ensure effective referral, assessment, treatment, and discharge.
- Promote and sustain good interpersonal relationships with residents, carer/families, members of the multi-disciplinary/primary healthcare team, other professionals, voluntary agencies, independent sector, and the public.
- To provide good mental health awareness information to the community.

Management and Personal Development- To participate in clinical supervision and individual appraisal in accordance with Trust Policy, ensuring high levels of skills and competence.
- To keep professionally updated with ongoing developments in mental health through an evidence-based approach to delivering high quality mental heal
