    Nhs Band 6 Community Mental Health Practitioner - Gloucester, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom - Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust

    Default job background
    Description

    I am the Lead Nurse for Mental Health Liaison Services at Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust and I am looking for a Band 6 (Registered Professional) Mental Health Practitioner to join my team for 6 months to cover maternity leave.

    Applications are welcome for registrants seeking professional development on a secondment basis.

    As the successful applicant you will join our dedicated 24/7 team based in Gloucester A& E Department.

    You will participate in the provision of a responsive, needs-led mental health assessment and short-term intervention service to people presenting to the General Hospital experiencing mental distress, mental illness and/or self harm.


    Our aim is to work closely with our Acute Hospital colleagues to deliver a pro-active, patient focused service that delivers the right care at the right time and our co-streaming innovation ensures that patients don't have to wait for their mental health care.


    If you have excellent interpersonal skills, the desire to deliver high quality care and you want to develop as a professional then I want to hear from you.

    Offer an assessment service to patients presenting at the emergency departments with a broad range of mental health and psychological problems, and psychiatric illnesses
    Providing a mental health consultation, liaison and advice service throughout the departments
    Assisting and supporting general hospital colleagues in making decisions about treatment and care in complex situations
    Representing mental health services within the Hospitals Trust.
    Providing a communication structure between secondary mental health services, primary care and non-statutory services, as a means of ensuring the highest possible standards of patient care
    To work as part of a psychiatric liaison team providing a core mental health liaison and assessment service providing 24hour clinical cover to the Accident and Emergency Departments on a 7 day per week basis

    At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it.

    Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS.

    The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.


    Our Staff Survey results showed people at our Trust feel they are engaged, part of a team and work for a compassionate and inclusive organisation.


    Our overall scores were better than average in eight of nine themes and level in one - the best overall results for a community, mental health and learning disabilities Trust in the south west and first equal amongst all sector NHS providers within the region too.

    Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy.

    The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs.

    Including new ways of working and delivering care, emphasising that we need to make effective use of the full range of our peoples skills and experience to deliver the best possible patient care.

    The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.

    Knowledge of key areas of mental health liaison work and the core skills required
    Extensive knowledge of a variety of approaches to assessment of mental health and associated treatments
    Demonstrate clinical expertise and high levels of competency regarding assessing and managing people with high clinical risk needs.
