Specialist Dynamic Support Keyworker

6 months ago


Rugeley, United Kingdom Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Would you like the chance to provide crucial support to Children and Young People (CYP) with a Learning Disability (LD) and/or Autism (A) (up to 25 years) at risk of admission to a mental health hospital?

As a LD/A Keyworker, you will have passion and commitment when delivering quality support within the family home, placement, or inpatient setting. You will work as part of a team to prevent - where possible - CYP from requiring an inpatient admission or placement.

Are you an Expert by Experience or a Professional (nurse, social worker, occupational therapist, speech & language therapist, psychological therapist, assistant psychologist, or youth worker) and have experience of providing support to CYP with a learning disability and/or autism.

The 0-25 year’s keyworker model aims to support reduction of the number of children in crisis and mental health admissions, supporting timely assessments/formulations, providing children and families with the support that they need at the right time, and improved transitions & quality of life, resulting in happy children and families. A key function of the service will be to empower families and support them with navigating barriers across multiple organisations (NHS, Local Authority, Voluntary sector, etc) to effectively access the right support from the system. Our keyworking model is about a set of functions introduced to the system via the keyworking role, in addition to the current roles in place to support CYP and their families.
- To understand and promote the needs of the child/ young person and their family.
- To ensure that local systems are responsive to meeting their needs in a holistic and joined up way
- To improve outcomes for children and young people with learning disabilities, autism or both.

By joining Team MPFT, you will be helping your communities and in return for this, we will support you by;
- Supporting your career development and progression
- Excellent NHS Pension scheme
- Generous maternity, paternity and adoption leave
- Options for flexible working
- Up to 27 days annual leave (increasing with service up to 33 days) and the opportunity to purchase additional leave
- Extensive Health and Wellbeing support and resources
- If you work in our community teams, we pay for your time travelling between patients
- Lease car if you complete more than 500 business miles per annum, fully insured and maintained (including tyres), mileage paid at lease car rate
- Salary sacrifice car - fully insured and maintained (including tyres), your gross pay is reduced by the cost of the vehicle before tax, NI and pension deductions are calculated, mileage paid at business rates
- Salary sacrifice bikes up to £2k
- Free car parking at all trust sites
- Free flu vaccinations every year
- Citizens Advice support linked with a Hardship Fund for one off additional support up to £250 (if the criteria is met)

And more. We are proud to be a diverse and inclusive organisation and there is a choice of staff networks that help you meet like-minded people.
- Facilitate the provision of emotional and behavioural support and informed advice to the CYP and their family/carers based on knowledge and experience of working with CYP and families/carers with complex needs.
- Troubleshoot on behalf of the CYP and their family/carers, where required, to ensure the necessary support is in place to enable them to remain within, or discharged into the community and promote joined up, consistent care, constructively challenging the status quo, where required.
- Create and encourage a culture which prioritises keeping CYP within the family home and local community by persuasively communicating with a range of teams, services and staff at different levels of seniority.
