Come and share your skills with us as a band 7 CAMHS Practitioner in our expanded team in Hounslow Community CAMHS (CCAMHS).

The team provides a proactive and creative intervention service for vulnerable children, young people and their families/carers and innovative work is actively encouraged. We are a multi-disciplinary team; including Child wellbeing practitioners, Assistant psychologist, Clinical and Counselling psychologists and Family therapists.

There are very good links between CCAMHS and our colleagues in other local CAMHS services such as the Mental Health Support Team for Schools and our tier 3 teams. Hounslow CAMHS and London Borough of Hounslow have a good history of successful multi-agency work. The multi-agencies involved are keen to develop and integrate mental health services for children and their families in as seamless a way as possible.

The post holders will be full members of their professional groups and all discipline groups have good support structures, this includes cross tier family therapy workshops.

The posts will both be supervised and supported by the relevant professional leads.

**As part of the CCAMHS Tier 2 provision your role will be to**:

- Provide mental health assessments and evidence-informed interventions for young people 0-18 and their families
- Provide consultation and advice to professionals working across multi-agencies involved with respect to child and adolescent mental health
- Provide training in aspects of child mental health to professionals in a range of primary settings, including primary health, schools and children’s social care settings and to develop a local needs analysis to support such training
- Ensure the systemic provision of specialist mental health services to children, adolescents, their families and/or carers within Tier 2 Mental Health Services
- Take an active role, as and when necessary, in the development of specialist Community CAMHS projects and services under the supervision of the professional lead consultant

Work autonomously within professional guidelines and exercise responsibility in accordance with Trust policies and guidance.

Hounslow CCAMHS operates from the Meadows Centre for Health, TW4 7NJ where there is free parking. During the Covid pandemic we are also providing a substantial virtual offer.

West London NHS Trust is one of the most diverse providers of mental health, community and social care in the UK.

Our 3,982 staff care for people in hospital and in the community, helping them to recover and go on to lead full and productive lives. We aim to be the best organisation of our kind in the country.

We provide care and treatment for more than 800,000 people living in the London boroughs of Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham and Hounslow, delivering services in the community (at home, in GP surgeries and care homes), hospital, specialist clinics and forensic (secure) units.

We’re rated good overall by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Together, we’re committed to promoting hope and wellbeing, working with patients, service users, carers, families and partners across the communities we serve.

We are keen to ensure that our workforce reflects the community it serves, particularly in terms of ethnicity, gender, disability, LGBTQ+ and experience of mental illness.
