3 days ago
This is an exciting opportunity for the position of a Senior Mental Health Practitioner to join the Slough Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) at a time of new developments for the service.
Within the CMHT we have Senior Mental Health Practitioners who work as care coordinators in a longer-term way with people who live with severe and enduring mental illnesses. There are also a number of Senior Mental Health Practitioners who work in with smaller caseloads in a more intense, goal-orientated way for shorter periods. This is usually especially helpful for patients who require support to change their social circumstances.
The successful post-holder will work alongside dedicated clinicians from other disciplines: Psychologists, CBT Therapists, Psychiatrists, Occupational Therapists, Nurses and Social Workers. We work in a multi-disciplinary way, undertaking comprehensive BioPsychoSocial assessments, developing transdiagnostic treatment plans, and with a focus on enablement and positive risk taking.
Working as a joint-funded service (NHS and Local Authority) we undertake statutory roles on behalf of Slough Borough Council, such as Care Act 2014 assessments for eligibility, Safeguarding reviews etc.; as well as NHS care coordination and treatment delivery in the community.
As a Senior Mental Health Practitioner you will be a member of the Slough Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) based in New Horizons. Slough CMHT is a multi-disciplinary service. As such, you will be working alongside Social Workers, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Nurses, Employment Support Workers (and more).
- Have clinical responsibility for a dedicated case load as specified by the Clinical Team Leader.
- Exercise a high degree of autonomy and make critical judgements and decisions for often complex and difficult casework and service delivery issues.
- Have responsibility for specialist mental health assessment, formulation, and development of multidisciplinary and multi-agency packages of care to people with serious mental health problems.
- Be responsible for identifying the specific interventions and skills required from the multidisciplinary team to deliver the plan of care and expected health/social outcomes which are evidenced based and lead to recovery and minimise risk.
