Description
As part of our transformation and development of Child and Adolescent Mental Health services, we are expanding our pathways and services to provide a rapid, robust and extended multi-agency crisis response that includes prompt assessment, liaison, consultation, training and where appropriate intensive time limited interventions for children and young people up to the age of 18, who are experiencing an acute mental health and/or psycho-social crisis.
This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of a crisis provision for the children and young people across North Wales.
The post holder will undertake assessments within A+E, paediatric wards and other community settings to support the provision of a rapid crisis response in the least restrictive way, but also consistent with identified needs, to ensure the safety of the young person safety and others.
In addition, you will provide clinical formulation, identifying the young person's and family's needs, offer liaison, consultation and brief intervention where required to facilitate safe discharge and support care planning across partner agencies.
The post holder will be a part of a multi-disciplinary unscheduled care service, working with young people who are experiencing a mental health and/or psycho-social crisis, whereby hospital admission is a strong possibility, but can be safely supported at home or within another community setting.
