Yeovil, Somerset, United Kingdom Somerset NHS Foundation Trust Full time
Job Summary

This is an autonomous role that requires the successful candidate to work as an independent prescriber within their own competencies. Regular clinical supervision and support from senior psychiatrists will be available, as well as peer supervision with other NMPs working in similar roles. The safeguards for the role include those set out in the Trust NMP policy.

Main Duties of the Job

The post-holder will be responsible for the facilitation of clinics running in each CMHS locality, including clozapine, depot, and wellbeing clinics. They will undertake monitoring and follow-ups, and work within the CMHS to increase timely access to medications and allow for increased frequency of monitoring and medicines optimisation.

As an independent prescriber, the post-holder will develop and embed the NMP role within the CMHS, leading and prescribing in both clozapine and depot clinics, as well as a stand-alone nurse prescribing clinic. This may include initiation and ongoing monitoring of psychotropic medications, including annual reviews, and smoking cessation.

The post-holder will also be regularly involved in CMHS assessments where there is a medication/diagnostic issue, allowing for immediate prescribing at the point of assessment, or medication advice to the GP.
