Havant, Hampshire, United Kingdom Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

About the Role

As a Community Mental Health Nurse with Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust, you will be working within an established Mental Health Community OPMH Team based at Havant Health Centre. Your primary responsibilities will include care coordination of service users, Duty Worker on rotation, initial and follow-up assessments, and supervision and mentorship of junior staff and students.

Key Responsibilities

  • Act as a care coordinator to an agreed caseload of service users with severe and enduring mental illness.
  • Undertake ongoing assessment, treatment, and evaluation for service users known to the service.

About Southern Health

Southern Health is one of the largest NHS Foundation Trusts in the UK, specialising in mental health and learning disabilities, as well as offering physical health community-based services. With a workforce of over 7000 and a footprint spanning over 200 sites across Hampshire, we are committed to providing the best possible healthcare, reaching a range of diverse communities, whilst placing patients and staff at the forefront of all our endeavours.

We are currently working closely with other NHS Trusts to combine all our collective community, mental health, and learning disability services, with the plan to create a new larger, more integrated and accessible organisation.

The transformation will happen in stages; Hampshire CAMHS, part of Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, joined Southern Health in February 2024, with Isle of Wight NHS Trust mental health and community services transitioning across in May 2024. The final combination of Southern Health and Solent NHS Trust services is expected in late 2024, when our new organisation, to be known as Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, will be formed.

Our new Trust will continue to cater to the unique needs of different communities, making healthcare across the county more accessible, as well as offering staff more opportunities for career development, training, and partnership working.

Further information about the Trust and this role can be found on the Job Description and Person Specification document attached.

We are happy to discuss flexible working options as part of the interview process.
