Are you looking for a new challenge and want to offer the best care in times of Crisis?

Do you want to help shape the future of the CRHTT?

We have a brand-new opportunity for a Mental Health Nurse to join the Crisis Resolution & Home Treatment Team (CRHTT) at Eaglestone Health Centre, Milton Keynes.

The NHS England Long Term Plan acknowledges the requirement to provide quality and timely mental health care for everyone who needs it, and to tackle inequalities in access, experience and outcomes. For most people with mental health needs, the diagnosed problem isn't all they need or want help with. People have said they need mental health services that go beyond symptoms and illnesses; joined-up services that see a person rather than a diagnosis and that work together to promote their all-round well-being.

The CRHTT team is a part of acute care and works closely with the acute hospital and community teams to support service users in a mental health crisis. It offers service users care and support in their own homes as an alternative to hospital admission.

CRHTT is able to offer all the benefits of a hospital admission while remaining at home including home visits from our experienced team, with support from doctors and psychology. We also facilitate supportive discharge from hospital, managing the transition back to community-based service.

The post holder will provide direct care, support and treatment to acutely mentally ill service users in community settings seven days a week. The role involves rapid response, face-to-face psychosocial assessments, support and identification of appropriate care pathways of those with various mental health problems and in a mental health crisis.

The role holder will participate in gatekeeping of admissions to hospital and facilitate discharge from inpatient settings once safe and appropriate. The post holder will refer and signpost service users to appropriate agencies identified according to service user needs and care pathway. Referrals may be from GPs, first response service, inpatient services, psychiatry hospital liaison team, AMHPs and other adult mental health services.

We are passionate about delivering first-class patient-centred, safe and effective care, whether it is in a hospital setting, in a community clinic or in the patients own home. Patients are at the heart of everything we do. Providing top quality care depends on our ability to employ the best people.

We're always looking to recruit outstanding people who will go the extra mile to support our patients, colleagues, teams and the Trust. With every new employee were hoping to find our future leaders and well support our staff by providing opportunities to develop your career.With a diverse culture and equally diverse range of opportunities across mental health, community services, addictions, eating disorders, learning disabilities and more whatever stage of your career you're at, there's always a place for you at CNWL.
