Job description

Job overview

Band 6 Assessment and Recovery Practitioner

Are you interested in working with individuals who have a variety of mental health presentations such as Anxiety , Depression , Bipolar Affective Disorder and Personality Disorders? Would you like to work in a proactive, friendly and supportive team of different disciplines? Our team brings a selection of skills and knowledge which aim to empower service users to achieve and maintain their recovery.

If you can answer yes to these questions, then we want you to apply for our band 6 posts in South Bristol Assessment and Recovery team. We have redesigned our model of care based on identified pathways and we are looking for clinicians who are skilled or have an interest in training to deliver interventions to service users.

THIS POST IS AVAILABLE TO ALL APPLICANTS WHO CAN DEMONSTRATE RELEVANT PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION (RMN, OT, Social Work).

Main duties of the job

We are a recovery focused service who work with individuals developing bespoke care plans that meet needs holistically with partner agencies. We recognise that practitioners are going to need a wide skill set to be able to do this. Taking this on board, we have developed a robust supervision programme leaving staff feeling supported and informed.

We have also looked at staff training and we are confident that you will be given adequate training to allow you to offer great support to those that you support.

We are aware that staff require adequate skills to undertake their roles efficiently, therefore, with staff working with complex emotional needs such as Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder, we use an intervention called Structured Clinical Management (SCM). We do provide training for all staff to be able to use the SCM pathway effectively.

We can also offer opportunities for training within the DBT service.

This is an exciting opportunity for clinicians to develop skills to support service users in a person Centred approach.

We look forward to hearing from you.
