This is an exciting new post that has been developed to support the setting up of a screening service for New Arrivals under the care of Manchester City Council. A small targeted offer is already in place for this group (consultation and some limited clinical input) and we are looking to improve the early identification of need with this post. The post holder will be supervised and managed within the long established CAMHS for Cared For Children Service (CAMHS LAC) and will be closely working with Manchester’s New Arrival Team and the MFT Health services. There will also be an opportunity to provide jointly, and independently, training and consultation to the network regarding stabilisation for trauma symptoms and to offer risk assessments and reviews for asylum seekers/to provide time limited trauma informed therapeutic sessions.
As part of the post, there is an expectation that a day a week will be spent within the duty team in North Manchester CAMHS. This will include mental state assessment, risk assessment and management, liaison with crisis care teams and paediatric ward assessments when appropriate.
**The main duties include**:
1) The development of a screening pathway for the mental health needs of unaccompanied asylum seekers
2) To liaise with the New Arrivals social worker team and Paediatric services regarding unaccompanied asylum seekers
3) To collate and review initial health assessments and social work initial assessments and gain consent and complete further screening questionnaires and/or support social care/accommodation staff in completing these screening questionnaires.
4) To provide jointly, and independently, training and consultation to the network regarding stabilisation for trauma symptoms
5) To work confidently with translators (face to face and via telephone)
6) To contribute, 1 day a week to the North CAMHS core team
