We are looking for a motivated, enthusiastic individual to join Newcastle Adult Community Mental Health Team (Lyme Brook Centre), Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. The Team operates from its main base on the Bradwell Hospital Site (free parking) which serves an identified catchment area within Newcastle-under-Lyme and the surrounding areas.
The role compromises of assessments, triage and duty work. Assessments will be completed within our already established Assessment Team. We are continuing to develop pathways in our service and our Assessment Team plays a pivotal role in ensuring that our service users have access to the treatment that they require as swiftly as possible after referral. We are striving for our referral pathway to be efficient and effective and use a multi-disciplinary approach to our decision making. This role will include being part of our Assessment Team and offering routine assessments within 28 days, to individuals in our local community who have been referred to our service.
Alongside the assessment process, we also triage and manage all referrals coming into the centre on a daily basis, using our multi-disciplinary team. This role would make a significant contribution to this function and would help us ensure consistency and quality, as part of our triaging process. This will then feed smoothly into the assessment pathway.
The final aspect to the role is to act as duty professional on a rotational basis. Service Users have access to our 24/7 Crisis Care Centre for crisis situations and are directed to our Duty Professional for routine support and interventions. The Duty Professional provides support for Service Users not in crisis and may consist of home visits, 48-hour follow up appointments after discharge from inpatient services and support when Key Workers are unavailable. The Duty Professional will also liaise with other Professionals, ensuring high quality, Gold Standard care and support.
You will be working alongside a well-established, experienced and extremely supportive team of people, including Psychiatrists, Community Mental Health Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Support Workers, Pharmacists, Social Workers, Psychologists, Students, Administration and Primary Care Colleagues.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a forward thinking Team in a role that will positively influence the experience of Secondary Mental health Services, for our Service Users. Experience in completing assessments in a mental health setting would be advantageous.
As a Trust we remain bold and ambitious with plans for both service and system collaborative transformation over the coming years to improve the health and wellbeing of our local people through high quality care.
We pride ourselves on ensuring our team has their wellbeing put first and as such provide a range of wellness opportunities including flexible working.
We are committed to the Greener NHS national ambition to becoming the worlds first carbon net zero national health system by 2045 ( Greener NHS (england.nhs.uk). As part of this, sustainability is embedded in our strategy as one of our four key enablers. In order to deliver on this commitment, we recognise that we need a workforce that is as passionate as we are about achieving these goals, for the benefit of our service users, workforce, local communities and the planet alike. For 2024/2025, we have launched our Proud to be Green engagement campaign which is aligned to the targets set out in our Green Plan. As a Trust, you can be assured that we will commit to supporting you in working towards our net zero ambitions, set out in our Green Plan, through our sustainability programme.
The Trust is committed to ensuring that a diverse workforce is representative and inclusive at all levels. We would very much welcome applications from all under-represented groups including women, people with disabilities, people from global majority backgrounds, and those from the lesbian, gay, bi and trans communities.
