Truro, United Kingdom Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are excited to go out to advert for two eating disorder practitioner posts, which overlap working within the FT-AN/BN therapy portion of the children and young people's eating disorders team in Cornwall (with supervision, support and training), and the new branch of our service, delivering intensive support to families and young people within their homes to avoid hospital admissions.

The post holder will be responsible for providing meal support in the young person’s home environment, along with implementation of distress tolerance and emotional regulation interventions. You will be working as part of the eating disorders multi-disciplinary team, and regular training and support will be provided.

Interventions primarily take place in the young person’s home environment, community settings, locality team bases and via in-reach to the local district general hospital and inpatient psychiatric wards.

Our team purpose is to prevent hospital admission for young people, and instead provide an at home alternative where young people can continue to engage in their homes and communities whilst receiving appropriate care and treatment for their eating disorder.

The team will be responsible for providing meal support in the young person’s home environment, along with implementation of distress tolerance and emotional regulation interventions. You will be supporting band 4s in delivering these interventions.

As an Eating Disorder Practitioner, you will be responsible for providing full assessments, formulation and evidence-based interventions to children, young people and their families, who are experiencing Eating disorders and co-morbid mental health difficulties.

You will be responsible for maintaining an individual caseload, from referral to discharge, conducting routine and high priority assessments and interventions as appropriate and exercising autonomy.

You will be liaising and providing advice, information and consultation to colleagues and other agencies as well as undertaking service governance activity, including research and audit as appropriate.

We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
