Are you an experienced RMN or OT seeking a new opportunity?
North and West AMHT have an opportunity for a Band 6 RMN / OT to become part of a well established Multidisciplinary Team on a full-time basis. The successful candidate will be appointed to this role at the Nuffield Health Centre, Witney.
The service has a new leadership team structure, with new team leaders in place leading to an improved culture and team. The role presents a fantastic opportunity for someone to develop and broaden their leadership skills - mentoring, supervising, and developing the careers and skills of others, as well as yourself.
The MDT is highly supportive and committed to delivering high-quality patient care; where the caseload can be demanding, diverse, and frequently complex.
We care deeply about our patients and their loved ones and believe in listening and responding as a team; piloting new models, supporting each other and developing and using new care approaches. We aim to improve patient care as well as provide increased staff satisfaction and sense of achievement.
You will need to be able to travel around the county, to offer interventions to patients and carers, so access to transport is essential.
Working within the AMHT you will coordinate the care for patients with severe and enduring mental health diagnosis. You will work autonomously, with a caseload of patients with whom you will engage and offer the recommended treatment and support. You will have experience of providing community mental health care and able to assess and plan treatment with service users. You will also be able to assess and manage risk, including use of Safeguarding processes.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
There are opportunities for team working and facilitating groups such as MBT/CBT based interventions.
Our AMHT provides an assessment and treatment function and the staff working within the team work on a rota covering shifts from 09.00 to 21.00 (7 days/week). The successful candidate will be required to work mainly 9-5 Monday to Friday; however, there is an expectation that there is flexibility to cover the out-of-hours shifts when required.
