Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CWP) supports thousands of vulnerable people across Cheshire and Merseyside.

We provide physical, mental health and learning disability services to a total population of around one million people.

Situated near two thriving cities in Liverpool and Manchester, CWP operates from 66 sites across Cheshire and Merseyside, including Wirral, Chester, Winsford, Crewe, Macclesfield, Sefton and Trafford.

We have been recognised by the Health Service Journal as one of the top places to work in the health service for the last two years running and committed to delivering person centred care.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has rated CWP as ‘Good’ overall, ‘better’ for treatments and ‘Outstanding’ for care.

We offer a variety of roles at all levels, so whether you are just starting out in your career or you are looking to use your skills and experience in a new role, CWP is the right employer for you.

At the NHS, we are reminded every day of how important life is. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement whether that’s job share, part time or another flexible pattern.

**Job overview**:
We have an opportunity for a 30hr per week opportunity as a Senior Practitioner post, fixed term for 2 years, based with the Wirral Community Learning Disabilities Team (CLDT). The CLDT is an established team comprising of nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, psychologists and psychiatry. The Senior Practitioner will work as part of the multi-disciplinary community team, and will be expected to work autonomously, managing a defined case load of adult service users with Learning Disabilities and complex health needs.

**Main duties of the job**:
The post holder will be expected to work autonomously, managing a defined case load of adult with learning disabilities, neurodevelopmental difficulties and /or challenging behaviour.

Your enthusiasm for providing a high-quality service and addressing health inequalities for people with learning disabilities will be matched by your ability to work collaboratively with not only the adults we support, but also their advocates/families and other identified stakeholders.

An excellent understanding of the issues adults with learning disabilities may experience is essential for this post as is a good understanding of Positive Behaviour Support, Mental Health, Positive Risk Assessment, Care Programme Approach and Case Management.

In addition to direct clinical skill, the successful applicants will be able to demonstrate skills in sharing knowledge through training and consultation and be able to modify and evaluate practice in line with clinical and service needs.

**Working for our organisation**:
CWP provides health and care services for local people, including mental health, learning disability, community physical health and all-age disability care - including the provision of three GP surgeries.

Our aim is to help people to be the best they can be, adopting a compassionate, person-centred approach to everything we do. We were recently rated as Outstanding for Caring by the Care Quality Commission with a Good rating overall.

We offer a variety of roles at all levels, so whether you are just starting out in your career or looking to use your skills and experience in a new role, CWP is the right employer for you.

CWP are committed to making our recruitment practices as inclusive as possible for everyone. We are committed to promoting equality and diversity and developing a culture that values differences.

CWP is proud to be an accredited Veteran Aware organisation helping to provide and share best practice in NHS care for our armed forces community. As a veteran aware organisation, CWP is committed to delivering on the principles of the Armed Force Covenant and has a ‘Bronze’ award with the MOD Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (DERS).
