A regional health care provider is seeking dedicated individuals to provide mental health support within Greater Manchester's custody environment. Successful candidates will work closely with vulnerable populations, ensuring their well-being and supporting their integration into community services. This role offers comprehensive training, and opportunities for personal development with a supportive team culture.
Do you have experience of providing high quality health and social care and support? Are you compassionate, non-judgemental and person centred in your approach?
If yes, then why not find out more and apply for a post in our Greater Manchester Liaison and Diversion Service!
You will work as part of an established multi-disciplinary team who put the experience of people using our service at the forefront of everything we do. You will receive a full induction, bespoke training, structured supervision and access to opportunities that support your further development.
The service operates across the Greater Manchester region and you will be based from one of the eight Greater Manchester Police Custody Suites. You will work on a rota between 7am to 7pm seven days a week.
We work with people of all ages (10+) whose individual circumstances may have led them to be in contact with the criminal justice system. Our team strives to assess and identify areas of need and support them accordingly to improve their outcomes and hopefully keep them away from the criminal justice system in future.
We hold a National Lived Experience Charter Silver Award and welcome applications from people with lived experience.
As the role requires access to police systems and buildings in addition to enhanced DBS, you will also be subject to Non Police Personnel Vetting (NPPV) which requires information about you, your family, your finances and a minimum of three years residency in the UK.
Greater Manchester Mental Health (GMMH) Foundation Trust employs over 6,400 members of staff, who deliver services from more than 160 locations.
We provide inpatient and community-based mental health care for people living in Bolton, the city of Manchester, Salford, Trafford and the borough of Wigan, and a wide range of specialist mental health and substance misuse services across Greater Manchester, the north west of England and beyond.
Greater Manchester is one of the world’s most innovative, original and exciting places to live and work. From the beauty of the surrounding countryside to the heart of the vibrant inner city with great shopping, entertainment and dining options.
Wherever you go you will experience a great northern welcome with people famed for their warmth, humour and generosity.
Our people enjoy their work, have opportunities to learn and develop their skills and are encouraged to generate new ideas that improve care for our service users.
