The Trust is an early implementer site, having won one of the competitive bids awarded by NHS England transformation funds and has already launched the Step Forward service an enhanced psychological intervention service for those individuals with complex needs who require a more intensive structured psychological intervention ensuring that evidence based psychological interventions are delivered in a timely manner to those who need them most.
The aim of the community model is to deliver a whole population approach that is integrated and maximises on the work at the interface between Primary and Secondary care.
We have already established these working models in parts of our service which have demonstrated great success in managing both the demand and the need for services at local level by working collaboratively with primary care and other partners.
This work results in a reduction of up to 40% of our referrals and has maximised the opportunities for working collaboratively alongside our GP colleagues with those individuals who may experience mental health needs but who do not require to be on the CMHT caseload, consequently caseload sizes are reducing significantly in sites where this work has already been implemented.
Community Mental Health Teams will be aligned to the Primary Care Networks and Integrated Care Teams we will work with smaller secondary care caseloads, utilising structured interventions but will have an active role in delivering a population based approach.
The opportunities for Consultants will be to have a varied experience in their post, in work that is dynamic and which will require leadership to engage and work with partners across the boundary of primary and secondary care.
