You must have post-registration experience including working within a busy acute environment and have completed mentorship training to be able to mentor students.
You will be involved in and contribute to the Mental Health Act assessment completed as part of the Section 136 process. You should have the confidence to voice your opinion and views as part of a multi-disciplinary team. You will be working with a wide range of experienced and friendly professionals, providing high quality of care and compassion.

You will also have excellent interpersonal skills to manage and supervise staff effectively.
