You will be responsible for a defined caseload and will formulate appropriate specific, highly specialist care and treatment plans; providing highly skilled and specialist interventions and care to service users with complex mental health problems.

As a registered Nurse/Health Care Professional (with NMC/HCPC reg.) the post holder will be responsible for working in way that promotes levels of excellence in the team and operates to the requirements of the service operational policy and strategy, and that safe, evidence based, effective, culturally competent care is delivered in a timely manner to service users.

This opportunity is for a registered professional to join a specialist Community Mental Health Team as a case manager working with people who have needs relating to a given diagnosis of ‘Personality Disorder’.

The focus of the role will be that of individual assessment and intervention delivered within the framework of NICE guidelines. Evidence based practice maximises service user’s strengths and for the Community Team this is with specific reference to the Structured Clinical Management Model to guide best practice.

The majority of people stay within the Primary Care system however many require more specialist input to understand their needs and make healthy changes to their thinking and behaviours.

The Team’s approach is based on the Structured Clinical Management (SCM) model; a model that gives clinicians a framework to guide their work with service-users based on psychologically informed best practice. The essence of SCM is formulation-based case management, including therapy, active crisis planning, and medication as an adjunct where appropriate.

The Team works with people around social care as well as psychological needs. All of these elements are aimed at engaging people in a way that means they continue to be as independent as possible.

You will receive both managerial and clinical monthly supervision, benefit from guidance and containment form senior colleagues across the clinical team and management group.
