Description

We are currently recruiting for 3 enthusiastic and highly motivated mental health nurses, occupational therapists or social workers to join our NHS England commissioned regional team based across the North of England.

We would strongly encourage occupational therapists to apply.

This exciting opportunity, within an innovative and experienced MDT and with our partner provider Combat Stress, is keen to recruit forward thinking clinicians to join the reigning clinical team of the year.

The successful applicants will join a service supporting veterans and service leavers with mental health needs related to their military experiences.

Veterans' Mental Health and Wellbeing Services (OpCOURAGE) will be changing over the coming year due to the start of a new contract.

The pathway for veterans is developing with the current component parts will becoming more integrated. The intention is that this will improve the quality of, and access to services for veterans and their families.

You will have opportunity to be part of those changes and support the journey to an integrated veteran's mental health service.

This role is community based and as such requires a high level of autonomous practice and sound clinical reasoning skills.

Clinical appointments will be delivered in person and via a range of remote technologies, and as such a car driver is essential given the geographical footprint of the service.
