Nottingham, United Kingdom Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an innovative and motivated Specialist Mental Health Practitioner to work in the developing Mental Health Treatment Requirement (MHTR) Service.

The MHTR Service aims to improve the opportunities for an individual who is in the Criminal Justice System to access psychological therapies/intervention. The MHTR is a Community Treatment Order: a form of diversion within rather than away from the criminal justice system, but outside custody. The service treatment aims to offer an individual the opportunity to access and engage in individualised psychological therapies therefore improving health and social outcomes and address the underlying cause of offending behaviour.

If you would like a challenge and the opportunity to be an inclusive, creative clinician, this job may be for you.

This post is eligible for a Golden Hello payment of £2,750 for new starters who are external to the Trust. This is payable in 3 instalments over a 2 year period. This payment is only eligible to new starters who do not already hold a contract of employment with the Trust. This post also includes paid enhancements for unsocial hours working during night, weekends and bank holidays.

This is a new development within Notts Healthcare and is a great opportunity to work in a developing service for service users within the criminal justice system, creating the best opportunity for supporting their engagement with services and helping to break the cycle of offending.

This role will include supporting and working alongside service users in a collaborative, therapeutic partnership and participation in the development and provision therapeutic activities/psycho-educational programmes and self-management interventions. The Specialist Mental Health Practitioner will likely work with the more complex service users.

Due to this being a developing service and having interface with a range of services, the post holder will be involved in promotion of the service and supporting the delivering training and awareness of the MHTR.

Appointed applicants will have access to robust clinical and managerial supervision and career development opportunities. The service is committed to ensuring the staff in the team are well equipped to work with the service users accessing the service and so training is well supported and there is a range of access to robust supervision.

This new service has 2 practitioner posts (this post and a Mental Health Practitioner) and will be based within the Magistrates Court (primarily) and Westminster House (team base for the Liaison and Diversion Services of which this service sits within).

Referral

Expected to create written reports in relation to assessments, formulations, treatment recommendations and communicate to referrers and other clinicians.

Active engagement
- Facilitate treatment interventions as appropriate and required by the service. This engagement may extend to family/friends/carers of the service users where appropriate/necessary.

Develop good working relationships
- To effectively liaise and develop links with services with partner agencies i.e. probation, substance use services, Trust services and 3rdparty services etc. To maintain up to date knowledge of legislation, national and local policies and procedures in relation to Mental Health, Primary Care Services and Criminal Justice Services.
