  • Work collaboratively with local schools and other relevant agencies to deliver a holistic package of care; this may include attending multi agency meetings. Ensure effective referrals, care and risk management, as well as ease of transition and referral for CYP.
  • Offer an initial triage/assessment for students (aged up to 18) where concerns/incidents relating to substance misuse have been identified and onward referral of CYP into SYPSMS as appropriate (CYP's consent will be required for direct support).
  • Offering appropriate specialist harm reduction advice/information to parents/carers and referral of CYP into SYPSMS where appropriate.
  • Ensuring timely and appropriate data recording – including tracking, outcome monitoring, KPI monitoring, and assisting with the production of feedback reports.
  • The SYPSMS team are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and CYP, working through a relationship-based approach, that draws on the ethos and values aligned with youth and community work. Integrating a variety of work backgrounds, the team utilise a 'Think Family' approach – and all staff are trained in motivational interviewing, trauma informed practice, and brief solution-focused interventions – click to find out more.
