Blackpool, United Kingdom Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen with Blackpool Healthier Minds. We require a flexible and highly motivated individual to undertake a Trainee High Intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) role within the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies Team (IAPT).

The post-holder will work with people with different cultural backgrounds and ages, using interpreters when necessary and should be committed to equal opportunities.

Are you looking for a rewarding and exciting role at an organisation that cares about people? Are you a caring, respectful clinician who wants to provide high quality, safe, innovative care?

Perhaps you are looking for the next step in your career and want to work somewhere you will be appreciated and able to progress?

At Blackpool Teaching Hospital we offer training and induction to all staff members new to the Trust.

We encourage all our staff whatever their role to keep learning through funded continued professional development which alongside a rolling clinical skills training programme can include more specialised clinical training dependent on the role, leadership development programmes, skills in coaching, and professional nurse advocate training.

Blackpool Teaching Hospitals recognise that our focus needs to be on retention, rewarding and recognising our amazing staff through schemes such as Christmas Sparkle, national appreciation days, and initiatives like our ‘going the extra mile’ peer recognition cards.

As one of the United Kingdom’s largest coastal resort, Blackpool has plenty to offer its residents - it’s not just a good place to work; it’s a great place to live.

**Our strategic vision is**:
“As a high performing Trust, operating as part of an integrated care system, we will provide high quality, safe and effective care. This will be achieved in a financially sustainable way, through our skilled and motivated workforce”.

We receive self-referrals and offer IAPT interventions and psychological therapies across steps 2 and 3, and over the past 12-18 months have developed pathways with physical health services in line with the National IAPT Long Term Conditions programme, in order to expand and increase the offer of psychological therapies to the Blackpool population. There is an expectation that on qualifying as a CBT therapist the Long Term condition training will be undertaken.
