We are looking to recruit a full-time Band 5 Mental Health Practitioner to work within our Personality Disorder Service. This will be an exciting opportunity to develop continuing practice and role development skills. It is a post suitable for either an experienced Band 5 mental health practitioner looking to develop their knowledge base or, a newly/soon to be qualified member of staff and preceptorship will be fully supported.

There are a variety of areas within the team that would give valuable experience. We have varied treatment pathways from short term management of risk presentations, moderate term group treatment pathways and longer-term caseloads that give the opportunity to develop some structured clinical intervention skills. There are a wide range of weekly work plans from working in the duty team, facilitating groups, case load management, along with taking part in group reflection and supervision, training and education.
The service provides evidence-based treatment protocols for patients with moderate to severe personality disorder which cover three main areas of impairment that the illness can present: namely psychological, occupational and social, with a specific focus on managing high chronic risk.
