4 weeks ago

Basildon, United Kingdom Vita Health Group Full time

The Role: What you will do?
**Warmth, Compassion, Empathy and Dedication. These are qualities we celebrate here at Vita Health Group, and we are looking for a colleague who shares these values too. If you pride yourself on quality of care, patient dignity and have a passion for delivering exceptional mental health care, then this could be the role for you**

**Making People Better**

As a Community Mental Health Support Worker, you will join a multidisciplinary team of clinical professionals, providing life changing mental health support to individuals across Basildon and Brentwood.

Using your skills and experience in care, you will provide physical health checks for individuals who are on the Serious Mental Illness (SMI) register. You will carry out a range of checks, including smoking status, alcohol intake, sleep, diet, exercise, substance misuse, BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure, glucose and cholesterol, and provide health and wellbeing advice to support your patients going forward.

Your passion for patient care and service delivery will allow you to contribute valuable insights, to help ensure that we are providing the best support for our clients. You will be supported by experienced, engaging clinicians who will work with you to develop your clinical skills and provide regular supervision to help inform your practice.

**Getting to know You**

Alongside your enthusiasm, commitment and motivation, we would like you to have:

- An NVQ or QFC in Health and Social Care / Certificate in Community Mental Health / Associate Practitioner Training / HCA Care Certificate
- Experience of working with people who live with having mental and/or physical health problems
- An awareness of, and commitment to, supporting and facilitating diversity and inclusion

Experience of working within a Primary Care or Community setting would also be great to see but is not essential for the role.

**Please Note: You must be able to travel in and around the Basildon and Brentwood area for this role.**

If this sounds like the right fit for you, we look forward to welcoming you to the team

**Why Vita Health Group?**:

We are physical and mental health specialists with over 30 years of experience. We work in partnership with the NHS, support the UK’s largest corporate companies to help assist their workforce and provide a full range of physiotherapy services to private customers.

To progress your skills and enable career development we provide Continued Professional Development opportunities including secondments, management training, a mentoring scheme and regular events and webinars across a range of clinical disciplines.
