Please note: Interview dates are 13th & 14th February and are offered face to face.
An exciting opportunity has arisen with the Mental Health Liaison Team, a Psychiatric Liaison Service which works out of three Acute hospitals in Coventry, Nuneaton, and Warwick. We have been successful in securing funding to recruit additional Band 6 clinicians to join our expanding multidisciplinary team to enhance our service in line with the NHS 5 year Forward View for Mental Health to achieve a CORE 24 service. This will include in the near future developing into facilitating initial community follow-up in line with CORE 24 objectives.
We would particularly like to hear from Nurses and Social Workers with a background in Adult Mental Health/ Learning Disability and/or Older Adults Mental Health.
We are strengthening our team and are looking for skilled, motivated, and compassionate practitioners as we increase our hours of service and look to offer a more responsive and comprehensive service than ever before for people who attend A&E or are receiving care in a general hospital. You will need experience of working with people across a broad spectrum of mental disorders including people who self-harm or who are in mental health crisis or experiencing mental disorders associated with ageing.
Successful candidates will be joining our well-established and supportive team of experienced practitioners: Psychologist, Occupational Therapist, Consultant Psychiatrists, Clinical Support Workers, and a Clinical Trainer to support new staff joining the team.
The service received an overall rating of Good by the CQC and an Outstanding for care and compassion, of which we are rightly proud. We have also been recognised both locally and nationally by receiving awards for the services we provide.
