Are you an autonomous RMN or Occupational Therapist looking for your next flexible role in the historic market town of Witney, West Oxfordshire?
If you have extensive experience of working in mental health services and understand the challenges that this care group can bring, North and West AMHT have an opportunity for a Band 6 RMN/OT to be part of the integral Treatment function.
We would consider full time (37.5 hours a week) or part time (minimum of 30 hours a week)

Working within the treatment function of the AMHT you will co-ordinate the care for patients with severe and enduring mental health diagnosis.
You will need to be able to work autonomously, with a caseload of patients with whom you will engage and offer the recommended treatment and support.
You will have experience of providing community mental health care and able to assess and plan treatment with service users. You will also be able to assess and manage risk, including use of Safeguarding processes.
There are opportunities for team working and facilitating groups such as MBT/CBT based interventions. The MDT consists of medics, psychological therapists, social workers, OTs, RMNs and support workers, as well as embedded workers from the third sector to support with employment, housing and social needs. In addition we have embedded Peer Support Workers within the teams to promote the power of lived experience and ensure that the gap between patient and clinician is bridged.
The post holder will need to be able to travel around the county, to offer interventions to patients and carers. The area is quite rural with limited public transport, so access to transport is essential.
