3 weeks ago
Description
GP practices are working alongside community mental health, social care, pharmacy, hospital and voluntary services to form Primary Care Networks (PCN's).
PCN's signal a significant change in the way practices interact with the wider health and social care system.This collaboration will enable care to be delivered to a defined patient population, in a different way to meet the needs of that population.
The focus will be on prevention and personalisation of care, whilst working together to make the best use of shared resources.
South Hambleton and North Ryedale PCN, together with Tees Esk and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, are working together to transform our local community mental health services for people with significant mental health problems.
New funding has enabled the PCN's and local GP surgeries, to create a multi-disciplinary team that will work in close collaboration with a wide range of stakeholders.
We are looking for the post holder to have an interest in 16-25 year old's. We are aware that a young person's first contact with services for emotional and mental health support is a critical part of their journey to recovery
We see this new role as fundamental to the development of innovative and integrated mental health services within our local community, relieving pressure from the GP's and allowing additional time for mental health problems to be fully explored.
