The Crisis Assessment Unit offers targeted informal admissions for service users in Leeds. The focus is on quality assessment and understanding of a person’s needs during their stay. The Crisis Assessment Unit has 6 beds (3 male, 3 female) and is staffed by a core group of 5 clinical staff (2 qualified and 3 health support workers) working alongside a wider MDT of psychology, housing, medics, harm reduction, Occupational Therapy and AMHPS. We strive to provide a caring, supportive and creative environment for our service users. The feedback we get from service users is really positive about the care they receive on the CAU. As well as a Clinical Team Manager, the service has a Band 7 Specialist Practitioner who supports the ongoing development of staff and the service.
The CAU/Police Pathways staff also manage the Leeds Section 136 Suite. This is a 3 bedded unit. As part of planned service development the team will also provide a Street Triage service as part of the police pathway (The existing Street Triage service work with West Yorkshire Police to support them in their use of S136 powers in the Leeds area, with the aim of reducing the number of detentions under this part of the MHA).
The Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) is the main provider of Mental Health and Learning Disability services in Leeds. We also provide specialist inpatient services in York and some highly specialised services across the country. As a teaching trust with strong links to local universities, we are a centre of excellence for teaching, research and development.
There are many benefits of working for LYPFT including fantastic employee wellbeing support, 27 - 33 days annual leave, flexible working and remote working arrangements, the NHS Pension Scheme (LYPFT pays 20.6% into your scheme each year), coaching, support and opportunities for career development and training and education support alongside a range of exclusive discounts and payment schemes including for cars, extra leave days and more organisations such as Blue Light Card, Health Service Discounts and NHS Discount Offers.
The role of the Health Support Worker is to deliver high quality care under supervision from qualified colleagues. The post holder will provide therapeutic support and practical assistance to service users in order for them to actively engage in their unique recovery process. The post requires effective liaison with service users, carers, and other professionals and agencies as required. It will involve the provision of direct physical and psychological care, offering therapeutic time to a defined client group working at all times within the principles of recovery. Our Health Support Workers are at the centre of engaging our service users, not just in ward based activity and therapy but also within the local community.
The purpose of this post is to provide and support the highest standards of evidence based clinical practice, in all areas of the work of the Crisis Assessment Unit/Section 136 Suite & Police Pathways. This will be achieved directly through clinical practice and participating in clinical support and supervision.
The CAU/S136 & Police Pathways is a 24 hour, 7 day service and the post holder will be expected to work shifts that support the provision of patient care.
