Description
An exciting opportunity for a Mental Health Nurse, Occupational Therapist or Social Worker has arisen to join the Somerset NHS Foundation Trust

Early Intervention in Psychosis service (STEP).

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-resourced team consisting of mental health nurses, social workers, psychologist, medics, carers and

peer support worker. We work with people to improve their quality of life, which is hugely rewarding.

We are a specialist service for people between the age of 14-65 who are experiencing, or at high risk of developing, their first episode of

Psychosis.

You'll have the opportunity to work autonomously with the support of a strong team of other health care professionals. The role will involve

providing assessments, care coordination, outreach and offering support to family members/carers, through education and liaison for people with

first episode psychosis in the locality in order to reduce the duration of untreated psychosis.

We are delighted to have recently received additional investment to improve our services and have also been graded as a top performing team by

the NCAP Early Intervention in Psychosis Spotlight audit, making it a great team to be a part of.

We are able to offer training within the role such as a 10 day course in Family Intervention in conjunction with Exeter University, as well as regular

supervision and support from your manager.
