Role Overview
We require a highly motivated individual with a genuine interest in providing evidence‑based interventions for young people who are experiencing a first episode of psychosis. The successful applicant will be required to use sound clinical and risk assessment skills, and to complete interventions to the high standards that we pride ourselves on offering.
There is a requirement of extensive travel across the Salford footprint, and beyond if clinically required. This is a community‑based role and working from home is not possible.
Team and Training
We are a very dedicated, highly motivated, and dynamic team. We have a true MDT approach, and our team consists of a number of different disciplines working towards common goals for our service users. We offer a range of Psychological Therapies/Psychosocial Interventions and have a comprehensive training programme across the directorate. We have regular in‑house training and clinical supervision with our Clinical Psychologists.
Service Users & Wellbeing
We work very closely with service users and families, offering family interventions and therapy. We value service user involvement and encourage participation in service developments on many levels, including via our Peer Mentor system and our Service User representatives who assist us with recruitment.
We pride ourselves on maintaining a strong staff wellbeing ethos where staff are encouraged to practice self‑care strategies not only to keep themselves well and happy, but also to ensure that a high quality service is consistently provided to service users and carers by staff who lead by example. We have a staff wellbeing lead, and this agenda is supported by the entire leadership team.
