Manchester, United Kingdom Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is a brilliant opportunity for a dedicated healthcare professional to promote and improve the mental health and well-being of Children, Young People and those who care for them. Working for MFT CAMHS, you’ll work with Children and Young People aged up to 18 years and who present with a wide range of complex emotional and behavioural difficulties. You’ll be supported to manage a defined caseload and have the responsibility for the assessment, treatment and discharge of children and young people. We’ll rely on you to ensure there is effective and sensitive communication between, the Children and Young People in your care, those who care for them, the health professionals you work with and other relevant agencies. MFT CAMHS sits within Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital (RMCH) and is comprised of 44 separate services, including 5 Core CAMHS services.

Please note, this post is based at Central Manchester Core CAMHS and has been developed to provide maternity cover.

Let us tell you more about what the job involves and why this could be your next and best career move - you just need the right skills, experience and attitude so you can meet the needs and demands of this critical and life enhancing role for our patients.

With current NMC, HCPC or SWE registration alongside a recognised qualification, you’ll have a working knowledge of CAMHS and/or adult mental health and have an understanding of assessing complex mental health needs & levels of risk, including safeguarding and self-harm

Using your experience of working with vulnerable people and their carers who present with complex mental health needs and are often a risk to themselves or others, you’ll undertake assessments and formulate plans for intervention, in collaboration with the Child, Young Person and those who care for them.

Dedicated to providing an environment that encourages patient-centred involvement, you’ll promote good working relationships as part of a wider multi-disciplinary team, making sure care is coordinated with the internal and external departments you work with, with the ultimate aim of providing the best patient journey possible.

Using your knowledge of evidence-based practice, you’ll offer therapeutic solutions in line with the National Institute for Health & Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.

Diversity Matters

We’re looking forward to hearing from you
