Specialist Nurse - Adult CMHT

Adult Community Mental Health Services in Hull are evolving - and this is your opportunity to be part of that change.

We have developed a new locality-based team, bringing together Primary and Secondary Mental Health Care staff to create a more integrated, seamless approach to care delivery.

We are seeking an enthusiastic Band 6 Specialist Nurse to join our dynamic locality team.

These posts sit within the secondary care element of the service and focus on delivering specialist mental health interventions for people with complex mental health needs. You will play a key role in supporting individuals through high-quality, person-centred care.

As we move towards a trauma-informed model of care, an understanding of this approach is essential, and you will be supported to embed these principles into everyday practice.

You will work collaboratively alongside colleagues from Social Work, Occupational Therapy and Clinical Psychology, benefiting from a broad mix of professional expertise and shared learning within a truly multidisciplinary environment.

This role also offers excellent leadership development opportunities, including providing supervision to healthcare staff and contributing to staff development through appraisal and clinical supervision.

Join us and help shape the future of community mental health care in Hull.

The applicant will be expected to have specialist nursing knowledge of working with adults with complex mental health issues.

Experience in assessing and managing clinical risk is a key feature of the role and so applicants will need to demonstrate understanding and experience in this area.

The post holder will manage a caseload of people with complex mental health presentations and will need to be able to prioritise their time effectively and maintain a degree of flexibility around their time management.
