Job summary

#JoinUsBeYou and make a difference a young person's life.

We are seeking to recruit staff with a professional registration (Nursing, Social Work, Occupational Therapy) to work within an exciting new service development within Pennine Care. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about working with children and young people and working innovatively across pathways and traditional boundaries to ensure that young people get the right care, from the right clinician/team, at the right time and in the right place in order to improve their outcomes and the families/carers experience of mental health support.

This is an exciting opportunity for practitioners to work as a Band 6 Mental Health Practitioner offering assessment, support, signposting and brief therapeautic intervention where appropriate to young people who required crisis support within our CYP crisis teams which include Home Treatment, Rapid Response and Enhanced Rapid Response-paediatric liaison within the Pennine Care footprint.

Main duties of the job

Pennine Care is currently engaged in a number of transformation schemes across the footprint. In line with the NHS Long Term Plan our CAMHS Care Hub has done extensive work around developing an exciting new Acute Care Pathway for children experiencing a crisis in their mental health. The aim within this pathway is to ensure that at the time of a young person experiencing a crisis our services can respond in the right way and at the right time with the right support to try and keep young people out of hospital and care for them in the community so they are able to experience the least amount of disruption to their lives and the lives of their families/carers. The other aspect of care and support within this pathway is to ensure that in situations where young people have been admitted to hospital that we are supporting them to be discharged in the safest and quickest way possible with the right resources in place in the community to prevent readmission.

The Acute Care Pathway Service Line is made up of 6 diverse teams offering different aspects of the care and treatment young people need from enhanced community crisis services such as Rapid Response Teams and Home Based Treatment Teams, assessment based services to ensure the young person is on the right pathway such as Greater Manchester Assessment Centre and Enhanced Rapid Response Paediatric Liaison Teams and at the other end specialists services such as Inpatient CAMHS settings and Community Eating Disorder Teams.
