We need someone with experience in good quality mental health assessment and interventions and occupational performance assessments, that can deliver these according to the values of our organisation. Mental Health Services Nationally are undergoing significant transformation under the Community Mental Health Framework. This involves the setting up of specific Memory Assessment Services as well as interventions aimed at the older population within an all age Mental Health Together + service, following diagnosis of both functional and memory conditions.

We also encourage innovative ideas around group work and utilising the voluntary sector in supporting service users with activities of daily living and leisure interests in order to better manage their mental health.  Your clinical competence and confidence is important to us, but in equal measure with your genuine kindness and compassion for your colleagues and patients; coupled with effective leadership skills that we will expect of you as a senior clinician.  We need someone that can support and nurture our less experienced staff, and to work effectively with the multi-disciplinary team.
