As part of community transformation we are changing the way we manage referrals. We are developing a referral and assessment hub and are looking to recruit B7 Senior Practitioners to manage referrals and assessments within the hub.
Referrals will be triaged by the senior practitioner they will then make a decision on the onward journey for that service user. Each senior practitioner will be linked in with one of our CMHT's and that will be agreed on appointment.
You will provide duty assessments for the team you are linked in with and will complete those assessments at that designated base or at a venue agreed with the service user and carer. There may also be times when that duty assessment will be completed on the ward if they are an inpatient at the time of referral.
This post is a full time position (37.5 hours per week) and the working hours will be 9am - 5pm 5 days per week . The CMHT is currently operational Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm so flexible working can be discussed.
