    We are seeking to recruit Mental Health Support Workers within the Community Mental Health Service in of Lewis and Harris.

This approach will build on, and further enhance the skills and resources of local community and specialist services. Thereby creating a more integrated and co-ordinated service that will respond more effectively to the needs of the local population.

    The successful candidates will be dynamic and forward thinking with keen insight into preventative and early intervention, with focus on safeguarding while working with vulnerable adults presenting with mental health and associated issues.

    You will be an integral part of our Nurse Lead team delivering consistent, equitable, high quality and timely care to individuals, helping us to make a real difference by offering a positive health experience to Individuals encountering our service.

    Example of duties required within this role:

    • supporting the nurses to complete clinical assessments.
