NHS Borders are looking for a Mental Health Practitioner/Nurse to join our thriving and innovative multi-disciplinary team.

NHS Borders are delighted to invite applicants to join our Child & Adolescent Health Service.

This is a fantastic career move brings with it a lifestyle changing opportunity to work in the Scottish Borders and experience the benefits of rural life with very easy access to major cities such as Edinburgh (37 Miles) Glasgow (75 miles) and Newcastle (75 miles).

Scottish Borders CAMHS aims to deliver person centred care based on the GIRFEC principles within our community.

As we progress with our service improvement program work we see this significant post as central, and an exciting opportunity to transform the way we support and care for children / young people and families in the community.

The Mental Health Practitioner will work with the members of the multi-disciplinary team to ensure services are effective. This will include professional and practice development and ensuring high quality person-centred care is delivered.

The post holder will lead by example to maintain high standards of care and practice to improve client care in the specialist CAMHS service.

We are looking for motivated nurse with clinical experience and knowledge of children and Young people's mental health.

We provide Tier 3 multidisciplinary and psychological interventions, and Tier 4 intensive community treatment.

Led by our population's changing needs and national guidance we are fostering a period of innovation and positive change across a range of CAMHS activities and also between ourselves and our multiagency partners.

We provide regular in House training opportunities through Continued Professional Development.


We would encourage anyone interested in this post to contact us (details below) for a chat and or to arrange a visit.

We would love to share the wonderful work that we are doing in the Scottish Borders.
