Our primary care mental health service is expanding

As part of the exciting community mental health transformation program in Luton, new opportunities have arisen for a registered mental health professional to work with our Primary Care Network Groups.

The Primary Care Mental health offer is an integral part of our multi-agency approach to mental health in Luton

The practitioner will work and be based in GP practices in Luton, aligned to one of the seven Luton Primary Care Networks (PCN) alongside our Senior Primary care mental health practitioners.

They will work to bridge the gap between primary and secondary care and will work as part of the multi-agency team to undertake triage and assessment.

Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve

Our values are:
We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations
