Our Service
Our service delivers home treatment 24/7 to an identified group of children and young people in Crisis by responding quickly to those referred with urgent and high-risk mental health needs, and provide collaborative, effective, evidence-based interventions at the right time with the right person.
About the Role
We are recruiting a Band 6 Mental Health Practitioner to work on a FTC for 12 months based in Shrewsbury working 37.5 hours per week.
This team provides an active involvement in the assessment, development, implementation and evaluation of service user care which focuses on ensuring that the service users are supported to remain in their own homes wherever hospitalisation can be safely and appropriately avoided.
There will be scope for creativity in this team, to develop evidence-based interventions, to think systemically and work collaboratively with children, young people and families, informed by the local Transformation Plan, Future in Mind and the THRIVE framework. It really is time to think differently and creatively about how we can help more children and young people with their emotional wellbeing and mental health. You will be supported by some very lovely people in all parts of our service and the wider partnership.
