The Mental Health Out of Area Team is a Trust-wide service that is internally commissioned by CWP as part of the Quality Strategy, to improve patient safety, quality and to help address bed flow across the adult complex care pathway. The work enhances existing care pathways by utilising expertise and specialist skills in complex care management and capturing variance to help inform service development.

The Mental Health Practitioner must demonstrate high level clinical skills, experience of working within Mental Health at least to a band 5 level.

CWP provides health and care services for local people, including mental health, learning disability, community physical health and all-age disability care - including the provision of three GP surgeries.

Our aim is to help people to be the best they can be, adopting a compassionate, person-centred approach to everything we do. We were recently rated as Outstanding for Caring by the Care Quality Commission with a Good rating overall.

We offer a variety of roles at all levels, so whether you are just starting out in your career or looking to use your skills and experience in a new role, CWP is the right employer for you.

CWP are committed to making our recruitment practices as inclusive as possible for everyone. We are committed to promoting equality and diversity and developing a culture that values differences.
