Are you dedicated to improving the lives of children and young people?
Do you thrive in environments where you can help to deliver impactful, short-term interventions?
Are you looking to take the leap into a leadership position?
We, the Crisis and Home Treatment Service (CAHTS), embedded within the Bath, North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire (BSW) Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), are looking for a Clinical Specialist to join us on a full-time basis.
We work closely alongside the Getting More Help Team on supporting children, young people (CYP) and their families experiencing complex mental health difficulties, such as anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation. Our CYP might be at risk of inpatient hospital admission or transitioning out of inpatient care; our role is to provide intensive, short-term support within the community (e.g. schools, in CYP’s homes, inpatient settings). No two days are the same, and there’s plenty of variety in this role and lots of opportunities for learning.
What a great opportunity to take that next step towards a senior role whilst being supported by a caring experienced multi professional team of practitioners and leaders.
