Orpington, United Kingdom Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We have an exciting opportunity for a care coordinator to join the Bromley Early Intervention team. We are looking to recruit a Care Coordinator to work with people experiencing first episode psychosis in our Early Intervention Service. The Early Intervention in Psychosis Service across the Trust is dynamic, well trained and enthusiastic about implementing evidence based approaches to supporting clients on their recovery journey. The successful post holder will be motivated, flexible and creative in their approach to engaging clients and will have experience of delivering evidence based psychosocial interventions to people experiencing psychosis.

The post holder will be closely supported in the team and will have the opportunity to participate in training and development as part of the team’s continuing professional development programme.

Experience and knowledge of working with Dual Diagnosis would also be desired.

EIP Care coordinators are required to coordinate the full range of psychological, pharmacological, social and occupational interventions recommended in NICE guidelines. Care should be coordinated across all relevant agencies encompassing the whole psychosis care pathway. A person-centred, integrated approach to providing services is fundamental to delivering high-quality care to people with psychosis.

Key Task and Responsibilities
Care Coordinators working with people with psychosis should ensure they are competent in:

- Engagement
- Working with a biopsychosocial formulation
- Assessment skills
- Using explanatory models of illness
- Explaining the causes of psychosis
- Explaining treatment options
- Negotiating skills
- Skills for working with families of people with psychosis
- Conflict management and conflict resolution.

EIP Care Coordinators should be skilled in working with recovery-based approaches to care planning. They should be able to work flexibly and creatively with people in order to achieve their individual goals, supporting them across a range of health and social care needs, including housing, benefits and debt advice.

Care Coordinators working with people with psychosis from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds should ensure they are competent in addressing cultural and ethnic differences in beliefs regarding biological, social and family influences on the causes of unusual mental states, treatment expectations and adherence.
