We are looking for experienced nurses or practitioners with an interest in CAMHS Crisis intervention to join the Camden Adolescent Intensive Support Service (CAISS).
What do CAISS team do?
We work with young people aged 12-18 experiencing a mental health crisis living in the Borough of Camden.
A young person accessing CAISS may experience some, if not all of the below:
o Experiencing an acute mental health crisis, or be chronically high risk of harm to themselves or others due their behaviours.
o At risk of a Tier 4 admission without intensive support.
o A history of or currently experiencing an inpatient admission.
o Challenges in engaging with other services.
o Several predisposing and/or precipitating risk factors present in their life.
o Require support with multiple aspects of their life (e.g. school, mental health, familial relationships, substance use etc) and therefore need a flexible, holistic approach.
We use a variety of therapeutic approaches in CAISS and have the capacity to see young people up to 5 times per week if needed. The work we do is often informed by elements of CBT, DBT, systemic psychotherapy, care coordination, nursing models, psychiatry and trauma-informed approaches.
We work closely with the wider CAMHS teams to support young people into long-term treatment and build support networks amongst Camden's strong community & voluntary sector, schools and local authority.
