    Description
    Are you an experienced CAMHS clinician looking for a new challenge and opportunity to join a service at a time of exciting change?
    Can you work with children, young people, their families and carers, providing evidence-based intervention in an intensive outreach team?

    We are looking for a Band 6 CAMHS clinician to work in CAMHS Intensive Outreach team.

    We are looking for a suitable candidate who can bring skills, experience and enthusiasm to meet the needs of children/young people with complex social, emotional, behavioural, neurodevelopmental and mental health needs.

    This post is open to mental health nurses, social workers, or other appropriate trained clinicians.

    In this important role, you will use your extensive skills and experience as a mental health practitioner to deliver high quality care, developing and sustaining relationships across agencies and working as a core member of a multi-disciplinary team.

    Using both evidence based practice and routine outcome measures, you will use a strength-based approach to work collaboratively with service users, in line with CYP-IAPT key principles.

    The post holder will be involved in holding a small case load of young people who are felt to meet the threshold for Intensive Outreach support.
