7 months ago


Wrexham, United Kingdom Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board Full time

Wrexham and Flintshire CAMHS are excited to be recruiting to two CAMHS Practitioner posts, to support the work of the GP In-Reach Team. We are focused on expanding our support to children, young people and their families at an early stage, to promote wellbeing and prevent the development of significant mental health difficulties. Our vision is to enhance and develop early intervention provision by increasing access to help at the right time, in the right place, from the right people.

You will be joining a skilled team of Senior Community CAMHS Practitioners across Wrexham and Flintshire who are leading on this work and have begun developing this vision; initially through working with GP practices.

We are looking for people who are confident in their skills and knowledge of children and young people’s mental health and who can communicate this effectively to others. You will primarily offer brief assessment, advice and intervention to children and young people who access their GP for support with emotional and mental health difficulties. Other duties will include offering consultation and advice to GPs and Practice staff, and supporting senior colleagues in the team with service developments, such as the delivery of training.

Applicants will need to be compliant with the professional requirements as determined by Mental Health Measure 2010 and should have a relevant professional and registered qualification relating to Health or Social Care (e.g. Clinical Psychology, Mental Health or Learning Disability Nursing, Occupational Therapy or Social work). Applicants should also be able to demonstrate a high level of competence, knowledge and skills (underpinned by knowledge of effective risk assessment and relevant evidence-based practice, which is crucial to this role).

Applicants should be able to demonstrate evidence of their clinical understanding and decision-making skills; be a committed team player with the ability to prioritise their own workload, and work well under pressure. Good IT skills are essential with confidence in Outlook, Word and Excel.

You will receive clinical supervision from senior members of the team.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply.

If you relish a challenge, have a passion to help others or simply fancy a fresh start, then Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) North Wales, has all the right ingredients. The largest health organisation in Wales, providing a full range of primary, community, mental health, acute and elective hospital services for a population of around 700,000, across North Wales. Join our team and get the support you need, in line with our Organisational Values and ‘Proud to Lead’ competence framework.

Enjoy being part of working with engaged leadership at all levels, and be assured we are committed to promoting equality and diversity, and are proud to welcome applicants under the “Disability Confident Employer” scheme.
