About the Service
At the Wandsworth Access, we process and manage all new referrals for children and adolescents in the Wandsworth borough where there are concerns about emotional/mental health and developmental difficulties.
The Wandsworth Access team works closely with other CAMHS teams and with multi-agency professionals including GPs, schools, social care and other organisations and charities in the local community, to help signpost families to the most appropriate support.
The CAMHS SPA provide triage and assessment for children, adolescents and their families experiencing a range of mental health, neurodevelopmental and emotional health difficulties. The SPA then directs the referrals to the appropriate CAMHS Team or signpost to alternative routes of support.
The successful candidate would be a key clinician within the CAMHS SPA, triaging referrals, offering mental health assessments, and liaising with multi-agency colleagues as described above.
