About the Role
We are looking to add a Mental Health Nurse to our team to provide high-quality care, support, and therapeutic strategies to children and young people (aged roughly 5-18) with complex emotional, behavioural, and mental health needs. Working alongside an in-house psychotherapist to provide a holistic therapeutic environment.
What Can You Expect as Part of Your Role?
- Facilitate and complete mental health assessments and collaboratively develop, implement, and review evidence-based care plans, ensuring they are regularly updated and reflect the child's changing needs.
- Model best practice in trauma-responsive care, helping the staff to understand and manage young people’s emotions rather than focusing solely on behaviour management.
- Safely manage, administer, and monitor medication, observing for side effects and reporting on responses to treatment, while adhering to NMC standards.
- Work collaboratively with the in-house therapist, providing guidance, advice, and reflective spaces to residential staff when managing and responding to challenging behaviour.
- Establish trusting, therapeutic relationships with young people to encourage engagement.
- Creating a Safe Environment: Facilitate a nurturing, stable environment where young people feel safe and can build trust, focusing on trauma responsive care in line with the therapeutic model and framework of Aspris.
