Job description

Community Mental Health Nurse - Intensive Case Pathway

You'll be joining a newly established, fully integrated multidisciplinary team that's committed to delivering innovative, person-centred mental health care across Buckinghamshire. Working alongside Occupational Therapists, Nurses, Consultant Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Support Workers and Clinical Leads, you'll be part of a collaborative team where every profession plays a key role in supporting recovery. Our Intensive Case Management and Rehabilitation Pathway has been designed to provide flexible, assertive outreach for adults and older adults with complex mental health needs who may struggle to engage with traditional services. Rather than expecting people to come to us, we meet them where they are - building trusting relationships and providing support in their homes, local communities and other settings where they feel comfortable. As a team, we share responsibility for supporting our service users through regular multidisciplinary discussions, collaborative decision-making and a strong focus on continuity of care. You'll have the opportunity to work creatively alongside colleagues from a range of professional backgrounds, developing holistic interventions that address mental and physical health, social needs and recovery goals together. This is a unique opportunity to join a brand-new service from the outset, helping to shape how the pathway develops while working within a supportive team that values collaboration, innovation and recovery-focused practice. Successful applicants will receive a comprehensive induction and evidence-based training package to support them in delivering high-quality care. We hope that the advert has given you a clear understanding of the skills we are seeking and the opportunity at hand. You will need to use the supporting statement element of your application form to demonstrate your suitability for this role and you should refer to the job description, person specification and the guidance notes attached to this role to help you tailor your application. The essential and desirable criteria will be used to shortlist for interview, and you should ensure that you refer to these within your application to increase your chances of being selected for interview. We are aware that some candidates may choose to use AI tools to support their application. We kindly remind applicants that submissions should remain an honest and accurate representation of their experience and must take care to ensure the use of AI tools does not generate an application that does not accurately reflect their knowledge, skills and values. Please note if you are based outside of the UK you will need to be fully qualified, have already passed your OSCE and have an NMC pin number in order to be considered for this role.
